This is my third attempt of Destroy the Icon, which is based off of her landing in Fortaleza, Brazil. Her last stop before crossing the Atlantic Ocean.
I love all of your iterations of this image, however this one is my favorite. I like how you messed up the composition of the original and placed Amelia in the bottom left rather than the right middle. This helps to solve the copyright issue very well. I also love the textures on this image, with the teals and pinks. The pinks are especially striking due to the accomplishments that she had made as a woman.
I'm liking this composition a lot and I think it creates another layer of "destruction" by further obscuring what the original image is. The blending modes making the subject look ghostly pale works really well here, especially if you wanted to push a theme of the mystery surrounding her death.
Here are my final pieces for the last project. The first one is my adjustment of my original idea, and the second one is me messing around with some symbolism to also emphasis my argument. I used American Pharaoh, a more well known horse, and I surrounded him with snapdragons which symbolize Deception and kept the color scheme dark blue which symbolizes justice. It was just me messing around and wouldn't be a final but I would like to include it even though it was not my focus for this project.
This is my final version of the fantasy appliance for critique. I ended up getting stuck with the idea towards the end, however, I enjoyed working on this and learning how to use Adobe Illustrator.

ReplyDeleteI love the colors you are using in this photo. The textures are great and you can't tell what photo you are using. Your subject looks like a ghost.
