Brainstorm for One Word Flag

Five Words that make me thing world unity:
1.Togetherness- Hands together creating a circle
2.Peace- warm and cool colours surrounding the worlds outline
3.Teamwork- 3 different people helping hold the world up.
4.Love- a pink glow surrounding the world/people
5.Knowledge- tree

I am going to make a flag with the world in the middle. And then having people hands in a spiral overtop of the image of the world. Then I am going to have three people holding up the world, they will be in warm and cool colours and they will be different types of people in the world. I am going to use earthy colours to show the idea of nature as well as giving a warm loving feeling to the overall piece.

Reflection for Bedroom

What do you like most about this piece?
I like the effect of the whole piece. It looks really cool with all the different sizes of pictures making one big picture. I like how it turned out and am very happy with it. I like how if you really look at it you can see more details in the picture and how things/objects come together in an interesting way. I like the colours and how everything comes together to make this effect of multiple pictures

If you were to change anything in this piece what would it be?
If I was to change something about this piece I would have taken more pictures of the floor and on different angles and closeups. I would also take more pictures far away and more really close up of either textures or different colours to make the piece more interesting. I would also has a lot more layers to make it look more complicated.

What do you dislike most about this piece?
The only thing that I dislike about this piece is the floor. I should have taken more pictures and from different angles to make it look more appealing and complicated.

Bedroom

Barbara Kruger Refection

What do you see in this piece of art (describe it)?
In this piece of art I see, leading on, desire, wanting, hurt and love. In this art I see that the women is the one leading on the man. Her look and expression on her face shows that she has something up her sleeve.

What kind of message did you try to give in this piece of art?
The kind of message that I tried to give in this piece of art is the idea of leading someone on. The women in this picture looks to have a hard expression on her face. She looks to be holding something back or holding a secret. The man looks like he really loves this women, but I wanted to give the idea that this women is leading him on for her own pleasure. This tends to happen in society, where people enjoy seeing other people hurt.

Do you like or dislike this piece of art? Why?
I like parts of this piece of art. For some reason it just doesn’t look like it flows together like the other Barbara Kruger pieces do. I put red as the background so it would work with the letters, but then it had too much red, so I tried with black to blend in with the actually picture. But then it had to much black. So I tried to balance the red, but still make it pop while having the black and white in it as well. Overall I like it. When I did a lot to the piece it took away from my message so I made it more simpler and focus on the message.
