Scanned Emotions



This piece was for the scanned emotions project, and for it I had my face with gray and black background and a ton of editing and effects and trimming. Basically it's my face with an overload of gray and black and somewhat blackish light brown into it. The only unique thing about it is the plant design with low opacity in the middle of the face part.

The picture has no pattern, being a portrait and singular subject/object, and there is the face to be contrasted against the darker background. It has the emphasis on the face of the subject, and has asymmetrical balance, yet again because the leaf pattern, and  the background. There is unity in it, it is not terrible to look at as a whole, and the other elements seem to work together.

The picture means that I am writing this at 3:38am and cannot even think about what I am supposed to be filling in here.

I felt like this picture was very successful in portraying the emotion that I was given to represent, apathy, because of how disconnected this picture feels. The gray and black were colors chosen to best represent it and help out he unity considering the emotion given. I personally think it looks better than average compared to the rest of my sorry works.
