Tool #3





I

Mashup "FotoTrix" allowed the clever saying to emanate from Cheryl Wegscheid. Photograph taken by myself at 2010 Graduation, June 1st at Don Coleman Coliseum. To position the 'bubble', I had to use coordinates on the x & y axis. I could not get the bubble high enough at "0", so I typed in -40 and positioned it as I wished. I keep photographs of most of my students' artwork. Except for cropping the photos, I rarely change any aspects of the photos or encourage the students to do so. Perhaps this can be a learning assignment - to use their own artwork and make new artwork out of the originals.

On the right, photo comes from Iwona Kellie's photo collection on Flickr. This photo struck me as a great perspective subject. All lines converge to the bottom left 3rd point. Also, the human subjects are large in the foreground and become much smaller in the distance. In art class, students need good photos that are offered without copyright from which to draw.
