     This image appeals to me because these women are the same person, but are manipulated in photoshop. I like it because the background of the scene is slightly faded and blurred and because of that makes the women and there appearance stand out more. The artist of this photo used multiple images of the same model, but digitally through photoshop stitched hen together into seamless composites.

This is my second original image/sticker design for the "Exit THrough the Gift SHop" project. My image/sticker is a photo of me texting and I chose this because it something I do very often and I am very protective of my phone. As you can see my fingers and the phone are emphasized because it is the main idea of the silage. If this were to became a sticker image and I was a graffiti artist i would put my phone on any common used electronic devices.
This is my first "Exit Through the Gift Shop" original image/sticker design. This image is a stick figure and whenever it gets  mad, irritated or messes up says the words "I'm Done". I drew this image because "I'm Done" is like my trade mark saying and I say it whenever I get mad, irritated or mess up. I don't just say the words I'm done either I usually make some arm or hand movement when I say it, so I made my image do the same. I added a chalk and charcoal effect to give my image more effect. I then signed the bottom with my first and last name initial and added a little anchor next to it, because I always draw anchors. As a street artist if I were to put this image somewhere I feel it would be places people get very frustrated with like on stoplights, school buildings, traffic, etc.
