Rye houses







Taken on a trip away with the girls, i had this one photo of the row of beach houses that i loved. I didnt just want to put the photo into the book.... so i cut it into six parts and changed each image into black and white but used filters and such to add a different effect to each, I ended up only using the roof tops as the focus of the images in the book.

flowers







these are photos taken for the gardens project. the thing i like most about these images now is that you cant tell what flower. these were also worked on using photoshop.

Faces











These are images of my friends and myself from all over the place. I work with the images on photo shop once i got the hang of what i wanted to do i managed to come away with a basic format of the face and added different colours, patterns and tones etc. In the books i printed one copy of the image onto nice paper as a background stuck them in the book and added the same image that i had printed onto tracing paper over the top but a little out of place.

Three down and three to go!!!!!

Ive put heaps of effort into coming up with images for my artists books so far im really happy with what ive come up with...... each book follows a theme. The three that ive finished are 1. faces ( thanks to my friends they dont know it yet) 2. Rye beach houses ( a trip away with the girls at the begining of the year!!) 3. flowers ( flowers from the gardens project)... now to get the photo's up.
