 In my work I tried to create an image that models Yvonne Bayers technique and design. Yvonne Bayers work is very creative and unique. For my images I tried to think outside of the box.  I like to eat macaroni and cheese. It is good… really good. And so is Yvonne Bayers images. In my images I tried to think of ways that are simple but clean at the same time.

  

   My examples-

    

I chose this image for my example because I think it is very creative. It looks like the paper is over flowing from the box. This picture was taken by Yvonne Bayer herself. One of her urban camouflage images. I like this picture because it is so simple but unique and different.

   I chose this photo for another example image because when I saw it, it was very eye catching. When I saw it, it popped out to me because of all of its vibrant colours. This photo was taken by a photographer called Liu Bolin. I really like this photo because it’s so bright and creative, the graffiti makes it so much more interesting. Overall this is a great photo.

 

 I chose this photo because at first I couldn’t find he person who was camouflaging in the photo. That is why I chose it, to see if you can find it as well. I also chose this photo because it is taken by Liu Bolin again and his work is very good! 

   My Photos - 

   For this photo I used my mom, she layed underneath my covers and I crunched the blanket in and under her arms and legs to make it look more camouflage, not just crumpled up blankets. This picture was taken in my room. 

   My inspiration for this photo is my sister. In this image I used my step dad. I got him to lay down in the bed but half sitting up. I used all of my sisters and brothers stuffed animals and toys. I took many shots but this one was the best. 

   In this image I used my sister. She is inside her dress up box and I used her dresses to cover and I placed jewelry around. The horse is there because the theme I was going for was Fairytale. So I added it in the photo. I thought of this idea because I saw a princess movie commercial Frozen on tv and it just popped in my head.
