In my final assignment, I attempted to combine elements of the identity and abstraction units to create portraits of my cat, Shaun. Using specific techniques, I was able to seemingly superimpose images onto each other, or in other cases create a motion blur. I feel like these pictures not only allow the audience to examine parts of the cat (eyes, fur, ears) more closely, but also creates a dream-like effect. In the future, I hope to be able to do something similar but using natural sunlight instead.
