world flag

 
What I like about this flag is that it represents the world as being one.  I like how I showed the four elements and how it unites the world together because everyone needs them to live.  The sun in the background is also something that everyone needs to be able to live because it gives us heat. The sun also unites the world as one.
What I don’t like is the black lines behind the big globe that the sun caused. I also don’t like how the fire and earth globes are not as black and they don’t stand out as much as the wind and the water.  I really didn’t like this assignment at first because I was really confused on what I wanted to do but I’m happy on how it turned out.
This flag is art because it’s an image that i made using photo shop. the image on the flag also has a massage behind it for the viewer to find out.  the massege behind my flag is that everyone in the world has things in comin. the 4 elements are a bassic thing that we all have in comin and they represent life.

Things I like:
I thought the idea of this project was really cool, the fact that I took a company and used its own slogan against it to make fun of it. I thought it was cool how the company makes itself look green and earth friendly, meanwhile they are cutting down trees to make there skateboards.  I like I changed the shirt to power to the chainsaw and how it looks like it is actually on the shirt. I think it’s almost hard to notice that I changed the shirt because it blends in so well.

Things I dislike:
I don't like how flat the chainsaw is and I feel like I could of maybe found a better picture of one. I feel like it doesn’t fit in with the picture.  I also didn’t like that I picked my favourite skateboard company to do this on. I  wanted to do something that related to me and this is what I came up with but I find it kind of funny that I picked a company I liked than made fun of it. I also don’t like the bottom right corner where the tree is how it doesn’t blend in as well with the background.  

What makes it art:
This piece is art because I took an image and changed it. It was an advertisement and I changed it to what I thought about the company. I expressed my thought about something through the image.  Its art because I used my Photoshop skills to cut different pictures out and blend them in with others.

3D



What I like about them.  I like how they are 3d and how they pop out.  I like the fence one how it makes the fence look like it is sticking out in front of the trees.  I enjoyed making these 3d images and learning how to make them I wish photo shop elements could do this.
What I don’t like a bout them.  At first when we started this assignment I thought it was hard and I didn’t like it at first.  I don’t like how you have to line the 2 pictures up and sometimes you have to align them up somewhere different in order for it to work.
What makes it art. These pictures are art because it is photography and we made them 3d.  Its art because we had to plan on what we wanted to pop out and we had to take pictures of something with a foreground and a background so that something would pop out.
