Andy Warhol "Threshold" Collage

For this project we had to make a collage using an Andy Warhol "Threshold" technique. For my picture I chose to do a person in blocks on the track. After turning the image black and white, I used threshold on each of the four pictures and gave them different threshold amounts. I then gave them different colors on the white parts of the threshold.

Social Injustice 6 Images Project

For this project, we had to choose some kind of social injustice and represent it through a series of 6 images that are also able to stand alone as their own image. I did this project with a partner and we chose the injustice of the difference between the rich and the poor. I did 3 images of the project and my partner (hopefully) also did three images. For my first image, I did a contrast between a rich and poor person. The rich person is throwing trash away in a trashcan and a poor person is picking trash up out of the trashcan. For my second and third images, I did a text effect. For the first I did the word "RICH." Inside the text and for the background I did an image of a bunch of money. For the second image I did the word "POOR" with pennies in the text and a plain black background. I didn't really love this project so much. I don't know why but I just wasn't able to come up with very creative ideas for it and I guess just not really really inspired by it.
