The Story
Showing what is considered to be a topical western society home. The house wasn't a normal home it was converted to a house of horror. Where the person collected terrific trophies of her distance links with that of poor or disadvantage mankind. Often these being the people that don't fit into a general community, especially when one's community is so wealthy and the other is so poor or disvantaged.
The starving
The weak
The butched
The poor
The sick
The dying
What happened to the original images to tell the story for the project
(1) Deleted Ellen Preis from the tapestry.
(2) Then clonerd the threads to hide where the image was removed.
(3) Cut out the starving child and feathered the cut image by 12 pixels.
(4) Lasso the picture frame on the right and copied it.
(5) Created two new layers and pasted a frame on each layer.
(6) Openned the images of the child in India and the Vietnamese Refugees. Dragged them both onto the background of the main image.
(7) Free transformaed both images, positioned them and sized them both to suit the picture frames.
(8) Added the Carlfornia image in the same fushion on the right hand of the image.
(9) I then flattened the images and saved it and printed the image out.
