At first I didn’t know what I was going to do with this project. I gradually formed more ideas as I went along, primarily to add balance to elements already on the page. I added the green bookshelf to draw attention away from the colored half of the face, which would have otherwise pulled attention away from the grayscale elements. I intentionally made the left eye unusually large to attract attention. When the assignment sheet mentioned something about focusing on areas that disappear when you squint at the picture, I was a little confused because I thought the main elements of the picture would be more obvious when you squinted. Instead, the areas I assigned ink and construction paper are the shapes that drew my attention first.
