The process to create my own project was a little bit more challenging but fun.
It felt more interactive having to find our own images to use or as an inspiration. It was intriguing to look up images that interest you because then you wanted to continue searching.
It was helpful getting feedback because they helped me to build upon my ideas and think more outside the box.
I first started the project with the broad topic of makeup but then i narrowed it down and tried to connect the ideas of music and makeup and the expressive side to both.
I learned how to use more tools from photoshop on how to clear up the skin and make it look smoother in a natural way.
The concept of my project is to show the way music and makeup can be expressive ways to show who you are and how you feel. They can be very complex and extreme, but they can also be very simple and delicate. For example, the image of Gaby on the bottom right is one that shows a more calm expression of makeup and her personality. While on the other side, the woman's makeup is very bold and conveys a message. Along with the two small images below that, the one with the eye and the G clef symbol is a representation of music and makeup coming together, while the colorful g clef is music in general.
