Masks Layers

 

    Using masks requires a lot of effort and attention to detail. The objects I chose were at random and have no sort of deep meaning or context. However the backgrounds in all 3 compositions do have context behind them. For composition I decided to use my black pen and then duplicate it to 6 times but put a looseleaf paper as the background since it makes sense to have a writing utensil with paper since that's what a writing utensil is for, to write on paper. Then for Composition 2 was a peculiar yet rational and completely understandable, I masked the clorox wipes and hand sanitizer , then faded the clorox wipes it to reveal the hand sanitizer dispenser. The background chosen was bubbles and blue water since I am using two sanitation products which are clorox wipes and hand sanitizer so using a background that has a "clean/sanitation" promoting look just seemed fitting to me. Then for composition 3 I kept the background image of the desk since it fits with the mouse, marker, and pen being on top of a classroom writing desk. My process was overall straightforward with not much thinking behind it other than quick creativity and simply masking and utilizing layer masks in the process. If there was something I wish I could've done was to use other objects that are less common in class, such as the white board eraser or other class items that are rarely used.
