1. At first I notice the brightness on the left side of my face and the sudden dark on the right making extreme values. It is just a simple photo, nothing too exciting. Of course since this is a self portrait, my immediate response is to search my image for flaws. The way my face is angled makes my nose look long and the way the lighting is makes me look pale but on a happy note my hair looks good.2. This is a snapshot of my head and shoulders. The background is dark but you can kind of tell its in my dorm room. The left side of my face is very bright because there is a light to my left so the right side of my face is darker. I am in the middle of the picture plane and I take up most of the picture. I am wearing a turquoise shirt with a long sleeve white shirt underneath. I have my hair half up with a white ribbon in it.
3. Like I said before my face and shoulders take up most of the picture and I am placed in the middle. There is only light coming from one side so there are many shadows. Most of the picture is lights and darks but the thing that stands out the most is my shirt. It brings more color to the image.
4. This pictures tell a story through my eyes. You can tell that for the most part I am happy but there is a hint of fear. A fear of the unknown, not knowing the future, not knowing where I will end up, if I will succeed or fail miserably. My eyes are the windows to my soul, to my heart, and to my mind. i would name this picture "Snapshot" it is just a second of my life.
5. My picture relates to Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres' because all of her drawings and paintings are portraits of people. They all tell a story of who the person is and what they have been through. They aren't all complex pictures some of them are just simple pictures of the person in a plain room.
