Artist Statement:
When choosing natural objects to scan onto the computer and use to create my surreal compositions, I looked for bright colors such as berries and bananas, as well as choosing objects that would have a lot of texture such as walnuts and twigs, etc. In arranging these objects within each composition I tried to have the background have a lot of texture so I choose to have enlarged images of berries and raisins because of the wrinkles they contained. A few of the pieces focused around patterns such as the last composition while a few tried to create a scene such as a bird or a storm at sea. With the other pieces I focused on layering foreground and background to create depth and a sense of movement. Each composition is separate but the composition 5 was influenced by my creation of the bird in composition 2.
