Art Project #4 Journal Entry

When picking a theme, I wanted to originally do something with abstract art of trees but then on our discussion forum, someone posted a suggestion about trees of life so I just went with it.  There were so many incredible pictures to choose from, it was hard to pick the ones that I wanted in my slideshow.  The theme of my slideshow is "Trees of Life," which is the title as well.  I focused a lot on the emphasis, colors, lines, and balance of the artwork that I found.  A lot of them were similar in the sense that there was an emphasis in the art with lighter colors, darker ones surrounding the edges.  It was an interesting project that I had fun with and enjoyed putting together.
