Camden represents me because:
1. Chipmunks are very fast and shifty just like myself on the lacrosse field.
2. Squirrels are always eating or looking for food and that pretty much describes me.
3. the duck feet on him represents me because i really like the water and swimming when the weather is nice.

I created space in my background by adding other mammals to the picture. i added a bird in the middle of the photo to create a foreground and added a bigger monkey at the top of the back round to create space. Also the forest picture i used for my background already came with a good sense of space and depth.

I like how this hybrid animal came out as a whole for sure. i really like how the background turned out as well as Camden. The monkey at the top right of the photo also came out very cool looking and actually looked like it was swinging from tree to tree.some things i could've improved on would've been the placement of my hybrid animal, it would've been cool if i had him doing an action or something like that. I also would have liked to add more animals to be in the trees and near camden.

Balance and symmetry is clearly used in my work. 3/4's of them you could cut directly in half and have the same thing on both sides in the same place. The purple and lime green illusion pictures is more abstract and asymmetrical apposed to the others that have regular symmetry. Using balance is easy when using symmetry because you want the same thing on all sides. I tried to make sure that i didn't have too much going on in my pictures but have enough to make it look like you really are looking into a kaleidoscope, and make them original pieces.
