1. Observe
2. Describe
In a light grey matte, there are two hands overlapping each other with the fingers curved kind of cupping the air. The hands and forearms are half way emerged in white murky looking water. Around the hands there is a green plant that is also emerged in the water.
3. Analyze
This photo uses the element of art color to bring out the hands. It is also tinted blue and the green leaves really bring out the whiteness of the water and the brightness of the hands. This photo also uses the principle of design balance by having the plant come around the side and the top and over the forearms. Also the murky water is balanced throughout the photo.
4. Interpret
This photo could represent peace and unity because of the plant which grounds you and water usually represents or is said to be peace/peaceful. The hands are also placed in a position that look like they are grasping something, so this could be the ability to grasp the idea of peace and be unified.
5. Judge
I think this photo was really good and I really appreciated the colors and how they came together in the end. I would hang this in my house, mostly because I think the color scheme and matting was really good. One thing I wish I did better would be maybe editing it a little more so it looks more vibrant or catches the eye more.
