Introduction
I was given a project to create a coherent series of five images involving still life that tells a story using simple objects that connect to each other in some way that tells viewers visually. The point was that I had to find a way that captures some of the elements and principles in art that helped to create these pieces.
1st Print
This is one of the top two pictures that I chose. This picture is a form of almost like a water tower using a clothes clip, an orange egg Kidneys Surprise, and a bottle cap to make the composition. The element contains lines in terms of the shadow is structured and extended in a curved form, along with a variety of shapes put together to create objects that have united as one. It also represents the element of color that truly emphasizes the essence of the form.
2nd Print
My second choice in the top two. I call this piece "Lights Up". It shows a Christmas stamp, a battery, and a key chain of a safety helmet wrapped around the stamp. It captures the line of the shadow, but the shape and form as well. It also captures a variety of colour that truly helps to identify them separately from the high saturation that intensifies from the stamp and helmet. It captures the sense of this sculpture being alive as if it were a person.

Conclusion
This project was not as bad compare to some of the other ones with the subjects being real people or shots from the city that is usually harder to manage. I had more control on taking pictures of still life and affect the lighting as well. Although it was difficult at times to make sure that the materials to make it did not always off and I messed up or not enough lighting to brighten up the picture.
