Well, as we kept working and sharing ideas I finally came up with two ideas that I thought would work and that I was pleased with. I ended up using the work I had put into the "top" piece but completely transforming it in Photoshop. I scanned the image in and inverted the colors and turned it 180 degrees. Erasing the word "top", the image turned into a sun or explosion. I decided to elaborate on the sun idea and use the word "sundance" as my word of focus for the piece. I really like the final product of this one, and so did many of my classmates.
My other piece was an idea that I wasn't sure would work or turn out the way I had imagined, but it did. I scanned pieces of crumpled newspaper to create a 'text'ure for the image. In order for the piece to be contradictory, to fulfill the assignment, I added the word "new" in Photoshop. I made the text a little bit transparent so it would be clearly visible but not take away from the depth and values in the crumpled paper.
I am very pleased with both of my final images. I learned how to properly mount pictures for successful presentation. I enjoyed this project.
