The artwork that I looked at was I and the Village by Marc Chagall. I could not get a picture of it so I will describe it for you. On the right side of the picture is a man whose skin is green and on the left side of the page is a colorful unicorn. The man is holding a tree like object and in the middle of the picture is a road with a man on it that looks to me like a road leading into a city or village.
This picture/artwork caught my eye because of the colors. I was intrigued to see a man colored green because people are not usually that colored skin. I also thought that it was cool that the unicorn and him are looking into each other's eye.
This artwork is located in the MoMa. This artwork was in the kids section and the reason why I yielded to this section is because artwork made for children is easy to understand and I like things that are easy to understand and have bright colors.
This piece drew my attention specifically of the colors. It is a really colorful piece and I become so intrigued with color schemes. The picture drew me in and by being drawn in by colors I saw the rest of the images captured with this one piece of artwork which was really beautiful and amazing to see.
I know that the piece is that the artist was trying to incorporate his home in Russia with the folktales he would hear as a kid and he wanted to incorporate them into one piece. he wanted to mix his reality with the unreal which i think it is so cool!

Transformation Project: Reflection
For this project I photographed my nephew. I chose to take pictures of him fo this project because I wanted to have playful silly transformation. my first idea was to have toys coming out of his head because he is a kid but that quickly changed because when I photographed him, all he wanted to do is stand like superman and that hit me, my nephew should be transformed into superman! To perform this task I changed the background because his pose looked like he was flying in the sky so I put the background to be the sky. Then I thought I did not want him to be typical superman so instead of making his suit blue and his symbol red, I did the opposite and instead of naming him as superman I named him as superman Ely. There you have it! My nephew Ely was transformed!
One thing i really enjoyed about this project was writing my steps out. I believe that really helped me understand how to work photoshop in a deeper complex level and it made it easy to create my transformation.
One thing that was difficult for me for this project was cropping out the excess background, that was really hard for me and frustrated me. If i would do this project over I would try to relax and not get frustrated at myself because it affected my work ethic.
Overall, i believe my transformation was strong and doing this project taught me a lot about how i work, and taught me how to work photoshop in a different light which i know will be very helpful in the future.

Do Now: Which typeface would you be?
If I had to be a font; I would choose to be the Sans Serif typeface. I would choose this because I like that it does not serifs at the end of the letters and Sans Serif has a simple elegance which i really enjoy. The specific font that I would be is Josefin Sans.
