Friday 15th April

I decided I needed to act on the advice given during my group crit the other week. I took the advice of having a two layered image, both featuring the same outline but one showing the 'perfect' Disney version of Snow White, and the other being a skeletal version, to show how sinister the themes are in terms of the poison apple. I think the idea is really good, and I like the way they feature exactly the same silhouette, however, I think as the whole a4 paper is pulled up to reveal another image, they become very detached. I think I could develop this if I cut the actual silhouette out, and you lifted this rather than the whole page up.


Taking the idea of Snow White being in this skeletal form after eating the poison apple, I adapted the famous 'kiss' scene to feature this too. I like the image but I used water colours, I don't think the subtle tones work within the image and when creating this again I will use acrylic paint of oil pastels in order to get stronger and more vibrant colours. I also combined some type using the mismatch stamps I have used before. I think this works well in framing the image.
