The Narcissist's Profile Picture

So this was interesting to say the least. I thought it was easy a crap to do it when you have a model, but doing it with a timer and looking in a mirror is hard. So I learned a lot and I think this is kind of cool.

Artist Profile: Greg Agee

Greg Agee 

Here is the full interview done by Retouching Academy :   Here





Artist Profile: Daisuke Takakura

                Is a photographer from Japan that uses cloning to make his work stand out from the rest. Takakura says that the project is his exploration of the idea of “self” and the idea of a person meeting many versions of themselves. His title refers to the type of theater in which one actor is featured through the entire production.
In this series, Takakura puts the actor in the frame of a photo and has that person interacting with numerous clones. He wanted to “harness the expressive power of theater in a still image,”.





I think that is work is really awesome and to me quite flawless! I really respect his dedication and his ability to put so much interest into his work.

The good, bad the ugly of cloning.

The Bad.....

This is just really awkward to see the same person multiplied in this image. It was just weird to me how they did it. 

The plain ugly.....


Seriously dude! Who copies things like this. 

The Good.....


This is a really good example and all the images are integrated really well. 

The amazing! 

To me this is just really cool to look at!

I hour later....


Soooo this took me about an hour to do. I had a total of six layers to add, two of which were added to add texture. I wanted to do something that I liked that had a little humor added to it.

Inspirational Images.... and such


The reason I chose this photo is because it is the inspiration for a project that I am wanting to do. The powder exploding is Holi Powder and it is used in the Indian culture to celebrate things and to just make life colorful. So that's why I like it because I see it as a celebration of new beginnings and new experiences as I enter my Senior year of college. 

I choose this image because it is a composite that I did for a random joke. I really like Van Gogh as a painter and I saw something online that made this joke so I took the image and made Van Gogh van go until he was van gone. 

This image is just something that makes me happy. I love watching the sun set...mainly because I'm too lazy to watch the sun rise..but also it has always been something that I have truly love to watch. 


I chose this photo because I really want an answer to why people keep hanging cats to make a pun!
