Project Number Two

Another project from the Obscured on-line photo class that I'm taking. Lots of textures, filters, layers and manipulations added to the main image of two faces.  It's tons o' fun to see what all these apps can do. And it is time consuming. I think the biggest challenge for me is opening myself to the idea of combining things, painting over things, adding elements. I'm so used to thinking of an image as simply itself; it's a real push to get past that idea. How do you decide to put a big swirly thing in the corner? and why? Right now I'm just holding on for the ride. We'll see where this goes...
