This is the final product of my project. I really like this image because i think it captivates the viewers attention. i feel the use of surrealism in this piece has been executed to my liking. i like the use of colour and the saturation. i feel that the use of leading lines keeps the viewers attention and directs their eyes to the center of the image.
The basis of this project was to create a piece of work to be published in the artistic magazine 'Oh Comely'. The work had to tie in with a december theme. My thoughts for the theme were along the lines of healthy eating. My initial idea was to have the hand coming out of the suitcase to be holding an apple or another kind of fruit/vegetable, however this eventually turned into the hand doing the 'OK' symbol. The reason i did this was because i just wanted people to know its okay. There's quite a lot of hype after december about eating healthy and loosing that 'christmas dinner belly'. I feel that the fuss made about it is very pressuring and quite a lot of people end up feeling worthless.
It took me long time to create this image and the problems i faced were on more than a regular basis, the thought process behind this work was quite intense. I really pushed myself and my creativity and had to learn a lot about the tools i was using to create the image, sometimes it was quite stressful but i can honestly say that i am very happy with it.
