Toaster With Background

 I added a background and it's a picture that I took while I was walking at Bass Lake. I decided to add it because I am deciding between turning my dear toaster into a campfire or making it into a duck and adding ducks in the creek because in a weird way the toaster looks like a duck. Please comment some input, I am indecisive.

    Turn it into a duck! Add baby toaster-lings too! I like how well done the toaster and the background are but they seem separated from each other. Maybe add a shadow to ground the object?

    Hi, Haley!

    I really like your creative ideas for your toaster. Just my two cents, I think it would be beneficial to just play around with both ideas in Illustrator and see which one you like or dislike more. I personally had to do a lot of image searching for my composition to find the perfect picture that fit my composition how I envisioned.

    Hey Haley! I'm really intrigued by the idea of you turning the toaster into a duck, too. When I read that you think it looks like a duck it totally clicked in my mind - I'm not sure how, but I agree! I agree with Maya's comment that a shadow would really mount it to the background and marry the two images together.

Mess or Everyday

Image
  My concept in one word is "Mess". I wish I could've been working on things more but it feels like everything is falling apart in my personal life and every time I try to work on this I can't really get anywhere. The thing on the top is a washing machine with my car's gear shift in it. It broke down this weekend in Asheville so I had to get towed from there and then my partner's parents had to come get us. I put the road because we can never get away from it and every time we drive it's a cycle of going somewhere and coming back. It's a similar thing with the gear shift and washing machine, we always come back (and they have their own cycles). I added my hamster because when I come home I see him. I am realizing that another concept could be "everyday". Sorry if I shared too much. Please let me know some more ideas if you have some. I'm feeling stuck.

Idea?

  I'm thinking about maybe creating a GIF. Maybe something that has to do with all of the fires going on right now. I am thinking about a silhouette of a person going and building a town. Eventually the town grows to cover the page(?) and becomes widely popular (like L.A.). and then a large fire comes in and wipes it out which could end up making the perfect loop with the silhouette coming over to restart the process. Maybe this could be done with figures cut out with paper and then the fire effect was added in later with editing or something?

Trying Some Things

 I've been playing in Photoshop and I really like where this is heading! I have been having trouble thinking of other things to do with the photo of Mr. John. If you have any ideas or think that I am doing something well let me know! I need all the help I can get. I don't know what it is but it's been harder for me to think of ideas.
