Final Concentration-First Five

This is a series of Alice. The first photo is her running away into the words. It's meant to be dreamlike as she is running away from reality. The second photo reveals that when she reaches the forest she is not alone. The pale, clawed hand is meant to be the Queen of hearts lurking and following Alice through the woods. The third picture depicts Alice's fear as she gets lost in the forest. The tree branches are meant to make her look trapped.

This is supposed to show the fight between the black and white chess pieces. Leading the black pieces is the dark Queen. I used lighting to make the black set look more fearsome and dangerous. The White set on the other side is much more organized, strategic, and innocent or cheerful looking.

Once more, here is the glass vile that Alice drinks to make her smaller. This is the edited version of the photo with some color boost.

Here is my diptych of the Queen of hearts. The left picture is to make her look creepy and feel like she is always watching you, from every angle. The right picture is queen looking down cheerfully and sadistically on a bunch of headless barbies. This shows how she rules over her minions with a cruel, iron-first, and it expresses her psycotic mindset.

This is a picture I took a couple months ago, when roses were still in bloom. I edited the color a bit and worked with the red and white to really emphasize "painting the roses red", which was an important scene in Alice In Wonderland.

  1. I like the way you use diptychs and triptychs to emphasize the story. The subjects you used helped to make the story surreal.

  2. The editing in photoshop really added to the mood of your concentration. I love all the bright and exaggerated colors. I also think it is really cool how you switch between singles, diptychs, and triptychs.
