Recreate2

photo by Koto Bolofo

My creation.

I loved the collections of Bolofo, especially his collection of Venus Williams. This photo was intruiguing to me because of the way it cut out part of the face/head. The face is not supposed to be the main focus of this photo, but rather the hat. Also, the way the eyes look up makes the audience follow the gaze up.
So, I thought it would be interesting to add books instead of a hat, because at our age, most people are juggling a lot of classes and other things. I think it turned out pretty well. The original is in a sepia tone, so it doesn't look quite the same, plus there isn't a shadow in the original. So I think I could have worked on the lighting in my photo more to match the original.
