Inspiration- contrast

While on the airplane, I thought it would be nice to capture something for the contrast blog. It surprisingly turned out pretty well, which i'm thankful for so here it is.

I think the contrast between the dark gray wing of the plane and the bright white clouds and bright blue sky creates a really nice image. The bright light coming through the windows of the plane also, created a great contrast with the dark interior of the plane.

Montage

So I didn't really need a tutorial for my montage, so I figured that I would just show you my project....but I'm not home and that's at home. So.....I'll just talk about it then!!! Get excited!!

So I really wasn't sure what I was going to do for this project so I just used the metallic part of my ear buds, because they represent me (duh) and layered them (hundreds of times) and set that as my background. Then, I used a series of photographs given to me for my birthday (shoutout to kira) and used the heart as my focal point.There were, also some mysterious flowers laying around my house and I really liked the colors of them so I incorporated them into my project. Oh and then I really like american eagle's clothes so I took the eagle from a bag that I had taken a picture of and rotated and played with the size of them in photoshop and created a cool design in the corner. I did really like how my project turned out and I'm really thankful that it's finally done and now I can continue to work on composite yay!!

Inspiration- 1 thing, 3 different ways.

I'm featuring Tony again because I miss him a lot and he's just so lovable and photogenic. I can remember the exact reason that I took each of these three pictures just by his facial expression.

He desperately wanted the bacon that I was eating in my other hand. And he just looks so slim, I mean look at that. He's so cute. Anyways, he was trying ridiculously hard to get that bacon and I thought it was hilarious because he just ate his whole bowl of food. 

He was extraordinarily annoyed because I had brushed his fur backwards and he was not having that so he stopped purring and glared at me until I brushed it back down normally. Sassy. 

I had just turned on the TV while he was napping and he was annoyed to say the least. I woke him up and he was like "not uh. stop it. when is she leaving." Plus I just really like this angle of his face because he just looks so fluffy and adorable.

Inspiration- something funny

I find this to be literally the funniest thing I have ever seen. I mean nothing can beat a fat cat rolling around on the floor. So this is my sisters obese cat rolling. He literally flops back and forth that's how fat he is. Anyway, his name is Tony and he's just the funniest thing I've ever seen and I love him. He easily makes my life when I go down to visit my sister.

Look at him, trying so hard to propel himself to his other side. You can see the inner turmoil as he's trying to find that strength to flip back over. Life's so hard.

Poster Design

For the poster design project, I decided to do Twelfth Night because I thought it would be an interesting play (and I heard that She's the Man was based off of the play and it's quite possibly my favorite movie of all time). I used the fact that the play is based for the most part on the beach, and used a picture of the beach and the pier that I took this summer and a wheel, which is a prop that they're going to use for the musical. I really liked for the most part how my project turned out, (I don't have pictures of it) but I love the contrast between the darker wheel and the bright sea and how I could incorporate a picture of my favorite place into my projects at school. It was fun to make even though it was a bit tiring and time consuming at times, but it was a good experience overall!

Inspiration- something that makes me happy

When I think of something that makes me happy, I automatically think of my friends. My friends are extremely important to me. They're who I go to if I'm having a rough day to go and get some cheesy tots after school or if I just need someone to make me laugh during gym, and they never fail to be there for me. Most of my friends I've only known for three or four years, but I feel like I've known them my whole life and hanging out with them on free weekends always makes me happy. My friends are really important to who I am and they make me the person I am today.

 The friends I surround myself with are quite possibly the funniest people on the planet. Whether it's laughing about inside jokes from eighth grade, making up crazy scenarios about what we would rather do, or simply just laughing about how stupid we're being, they never fail to make me laugh. I always find myself laughing when I'm around them and it's just the best.

 I love hanging out with them and I've grown to love them all for themselves. We never have to be anyone different when we're all together, we're just ourselves. We get on each others' nerves, yes, and we sometimes say the wrong thing at the wrong time, but we keep each other grounded. Hanging out with them individually or in a group really does make me happy.

Inspiration- Younger Self

I have literally thousands of embarrassing pictures of my younger self because my sister fancied herself a photographer so awesome for me. It's nice though to go back and see the pictures, especially from when I was super little, and reminisce. I was the cutest baby in the entire world. Anyways, enjoy!

Sorry for party rocking in this fur fest when I was like six...I, like Marlee, dressed myself. I have at least three hundred picture of myself in those fabulous heart glasses. I honestly can;t remember where I was when this was taken though (oops).

This was a common picture in my youth, me with my sister, apparently I was just always with her. I love this picture though, my sister was like thirteen (and would kill me if she knew this was online) and it just reminds me of the good times when we were younger and when we were super close. Lovin' the christmas spirit!

 So I was the adorable, quiet one in the back that was enjoying my red wagon and meeting Madeline. The children before me are in order my best friend who is sobbing and who I grew up with, Ashley and then the boy in between us is her cousin..or something Devon, I also grew up with him. I really like our cardboard crowns in this picture and also how confused I look that everyone else is crying and I'm just like what's going on guys but, anyway awesome picture overall.
