Artist statement
Nature selfie-
They message that am trying to convey in my photo was that I was trying to make myself part of the nature. My background later is the picture I took of the flower. I took the picture by my dads restaurant and I thought I looked really nice as the background and it fit into the concept of my picture. Then the next layer was my selfie, I edited the photo so that the background was cropped out and it was just my body. Over the layer of my body, from my neck down I had a layer that was semi translucent and it was my picture of the clovers. The last layer was of my other photo of a flower (it was white). I made it so the center of the flower was my eye and this was also translucent so you could still see the outline of my face. This was all of the aspects of my Nature Selfie Collage.

I took this selfie at home next to my computer at night because it provided good lighting. For the background photo I took it a couple weeks ago and never found something to use it for until now. I went good with my photo. I didn't have any problems taking this but it was kind of had to edit and put the text on the picture. It was also difficult to crop the photo to the right size because the background was way bigger than the selfie. This photo is a lot better than my first selfie collage that I made. I am more experienced now about editing in photoshop and I know what looks good or bad together.
