Through this design I shared the important matters in my mind, this design was psychologically good because I got to think more about myself and my current concerns. I downloaded cartoon characters from Google; I then used paint for editing them. On the other hand, I took a photo of UMW campus and I made a silhouette of my head in GIMP; I combined that with the cartoon characters, each representing my thoughts.
THe assignment said to put together pictures of what goes on inside my brain. The basis of the silloette is a montage of Harry Potter photos. I chose Harry Potter because those stories inspired me to become an English Major. Also those photos are usually the basis for ANY photo shop project that I do, so that becomes a major part of my life as well. Starting from the bottom, I am extremely proud of the fact that I am a member of the Gold Key International Honor Society and my involvement with them takes up much of my time. Next I put a wedding dress because planning my wedding is always on my mind. Beside that I put the biggest loser logo. The biggest loser logo constantly reminds me of my battle to get healthy again. THe last 4 things are much larger. I put Smurfs because that has always been an inside joke with my friends and I and I have a collection of vintage smurf toys. I chose the Home Depot logo because without them…I could not afford to be making this post. I included the word LOVE as the largest thing in my picture because it reminds me that without love, everything else on my list is pointless. Finally I finished off with a graduation hat and diploma because I am so close to graduation I can taste it.
