This was a photo I took of a mountain range in Colorado.As a class project, we were working on a piece focusing around surrealism, where we took something that does not exist in reality and add it to an image we have taken in the past to create a realistic but imaginative piece. I decided to focus on dragons because I become a bit of a dork when it comes to anything fantasy related (Skyrim, dungeons and dragons, etc.) so I had a ton of fun making this because really, the sky is the limit here. I brought in some images of free flying dragons and added them to my photograph and edited it all in a way to achieve the look of an photograph capturing these dragons and a distant castle within. The goal for me was to make the unreal as real as possible. So the faint blur and mist around the dragons I did intentionally, so they would not become an eyesore from their previously pixally state and to kind of imitate that capturing of movement that we see with so many photographs.

As part of a class project, we were instructed to make an expressive piece dedicated to someone we feel has changed history or played an important/incitful role. So I chose to dedicate my project to the wonderful Susan Boyle, an inspirational and courageous woman who pursued her dreams until she conquered them, even while being under the constant scrutiny of others. She truly is a wonderful example of having strength and determination even when everyone tells you can’t do anything you set you heart on. I truly take this lesson to heart, not letting society’s opinion of me rule how I live my life. I wish to stay strong and conquer what I wish to achieve by my own merit and that is why I chose this amazing woman to be the inspiration for this project.
