after the apocalypse reflection


What I like about this piece is the design of the cement truck becoming a bath/ shower.  I like how its 3d and how the dots make everything pop out that much more.  I really found it interesting on how using different colours makes it more 3d.
What i don’t like about this piece is how simple the design is.  If I were to redo this assignment I would make it bigger and add a lot more objects to make it more unique.  I think it would be cool to do a picture with many different buildings like this, or maybe make a town.

after the apocalypse

For this assignment I would like to incorporate a lot of nature in the design. For example build the house into a hill or on trees.  I would also like to incorporate pieces from modern buildings and cars.  I would like to make a way for water to get there and recycle a lot of random house hold items into something like using plastic bags for shingles or to hold water.

the spirit of endurance final


What I like. I like how I went to somebodies farm and jumped into there field with cows and took pictures of there tree. I really like the background and how the brick is coming through the trees. I liked the background so much I saved it before I added the spider webs and the tree on the right side and I made an enjoy don’t destroy piece with it.
What I don’t like. I don’t really like how the picture of the tree I took on the right side doesn’t really fit in well. I wish I took the pictures of the tree before I added the tree on the left. I really found troubles with this assignment but now when I look back I feel like I could have done a better job and made it look a little better. I think I don’t really like the outcome of this picture maby because it was the first assignment of the year and I lost my Photoshop skills over the summer.
How dose this represent the spirit of endurance. I think this represents the spirit of endurance because the tree that I took pictures of had almost all of its limbs cut off accept for one that stretched put really far. From the road it looked like a big tall dead tree stump but when you drive down the road you can see the long branch sticking out of the tree with green leafs on  it .

the spirit of endurance brainstorming






As soon as I read this assignment about the photo of the tree I immediately thought of a tree on my bus route that has all of its limbs cut off accept for one that branches over really far.  I have always looked at this tree differently and saw something different in it.  I could never find out what was so unique about it and why it stuck out in my mind until I read this assignment.  The fact that it is still alive and living after almost every branch was cut off I thought was amazing. On the weekend my mom drove me to their place and I hoped the fence into a field of cows and took a bunch of pictures of the tree.
