Value Added Digital Collage (Broad Range)

Sfontanet_value_added  This is the digital version of my broad range value collage.  The transition to photoshop was surprisingly easy, as there was no actual cutting and pasting.  I feel like I was accurately able to replicated the broad range collage.  This whole project has really opened up my eyes to value, and how much of an impact it can have on a piece.  For example, in this broad range piece, I decided to use different values to lead my audiences eyes to a certain point of the piece.  In this case, it is the sphere on the right hand side.  I feel like the light area at the top left brings the eye into the darker areas, and allows it to loop around into the sphere.  Value was also very important in pinpointing a focal point in my narrow range piece.  The dark corners looked like vignettes, which are generally used to bring focus to the middle of a piece.  The corners lead my eyes towards the shape in the center, which was my primary goal.
