My Bedroom - Joiner






This is my David Hockney piece. I used my bedroom for this picture and as you can see the colours are mostly blue. At first i had to crop each picture so they could fit together and i then moved eack picture around untill they fitted together. This has also been improved since my last post as it was only half done. This time there are more pictures being used in the Joiner and it shows a better image of my room.

My own photograph




For this edited photo i had to use various techniques. I first used the cropping tool to remove the two pillars on either side as i thought they were ruining the image. I then selected all of the image apart from the rose buds and used the saturation tool to remove all the colour from the photo. This gives a contrast to the picture which is what i wanted from the start. I then selected the colour of the rose and used it alongside a grey tone to create the sky.

Photomontage Photographers


David Hockney is an English painter, draughtsman, printmaker, stage designer and photographer, who is based in Bridlington, Yorkshire, although he also maintains a base in London. An important contributor to the Pop art movement of the 1960s, he is considered one of the most influential British artists of the twentieth century.




This is one of the photomotages he did. I particulary like this one as you can see where the photos overlap yet it looks like the actual place.
