The song behind my third concentration piece is Man in Black by Johnny Cash. The meaning behind the song is that he wears black for the poor and for everything wrong in the world, while there is others who are happy and rich. So the basis behind the piece was that the left side symbolizes the rich and famous and overall blessed side, with images of rich items and colors. The other half is in black and white and has images from poverty and war. Over the colored side I painted the silhouette of Cash walking down, like there is on the album. On the black and white side I wrote the lyric from the song "Till things are brighter". Overall, I feel good about this piece and how it turned out. I would like to go back and add better transitions between the sides and images, but I will do that when I have more time. Some things that I feel went well in this piece was that I felt like I started to get a better grip on mixed media and have found new elements to put into my piece. Some things that I need to work on for this piece is the transitions and not having such harsh lines within the pictures.
