I had fun doing my still lifes because it was a big mess. However I liked how some turned out. In the first picture, this was my first vision of having a simple white ice cream and cone and have bright paint dripped over the top. It's a very different idea and I feel that's where the creativity comes from for all 4 of the pictures. The compositions used in the first is the rule of thirds, and color. The ice cream is offset to the right corner to where it's considered rule of thirds. The color leads the eye straight to the blue and sprinkles because that's the pop of color that's so different in this picture. The second picture is the new idea that I wasn't anticipating on, but turned out very cool and different, which was the cone turned upside down. What makes this picture cool is that the angle I used and the focus is on the simple as to the big mess and complex subject in the background. The composition I used was texture. In the third picture the angle also gave it a different view. I feel the background helped the ice cream because it was so black, that it made it pop out even more. The compositional pieces used were texture, and symmetry from the paint on the bottom. Finally the last picture, I mostly like this one from the reflection on the bottom. The blur in the front also adds a nice feature to the photo. The compositions I used were texture, lighting, and the focus. Overall, my process of finding this idea came to me from pinterest where I found a simple picture of a hand holding a melting ice cream cone and I wanted to take that idea and add a spin to it. It then eventually turned into turning the ice cream upside down and creating a mess, but a it turned out to very cool I feel.
