Dolores Marat
I took these photo's with inspiration from Dolores Marat's pictures. I edited the majority of them in iphoto these photo's we're taken in and around school and I boosted the colours and upped the warmth which made them have the Dolores Marat effect with the very bright bold colours.
I chose Barbara Kasten's images to evaluate because they're very unique and stood out to me because she uses sets and stages. The background are very dark, bland colours such as dark purples and blacks when the foreground uses very bright and bold colours such as red, yellow, green, blue which makes you pay attention to the edges in the shapes that are mostly geometric shapes like triangles, squares, circles etc. She uses the reflection of water on the sides of some of the shapes in one of her photo's which really makes this photo stand out to me.
Edges Final Piece Evaluation
While researching Edges Photograph I have discovered artists such as Barbara Kasten who has a very unique style by mixing everyday things such as stairs and walkways and adds shapes and makes everything look colourful and bright with a dark background. I explored edges by using photoshop to get photo's of people and use them on top of photos of objects that pay attention to their natural edges and the shadows. My threshold concept that I mostly payed attention to was the new genre of using photoshop and new technology to achieve a good photo because I mostly used editing and the computer to achieve my final piece. To develop my work I used a standard camera to take two images (per photo) then used photoshop to get the images together and then changed the Opacity to make the other image stand through the other one.
