Week 1

There are many repetitions that are seen among this piece within the lines and the windows within the building. There are naturally occurring lines in the different color bricks that are descending horizontally down the building. Also the perfect array of windows that are going up the side of the building give it a more abstract feel to it. Also the angle at which this building was shot it gives it a more abstract look.

Week 1

This is my 30 minute painting that I did in Photoshop. I thought this piece was pretty successful because I had never really used Photoshop before. I distorted and painted over the image of the zebra and there are a few different layers in the piece. There were a few times that I struggled with what I wanted to do because I am so new to Photoshop but i eventually was able to find a way around the problem. I was able to distort the background a lot more than the main image so that the image would stand out a lot more.
