The Shark

 GREAT! forgot my memory stick -.- (<<my not so impressed face) but I managed to produce a pretty nice image without it. I scanned in an image of a fish drawing i had done weeks before in another lesson and because of the tone i thought it would be good if i played around with the live trace, a list came up and i chose ink sketch, this left me with a back sketchy outline which i found quite effective. i put a background of a coral reef behind the fish, i wanted to portray a message that fish scales are shiny and reflect the sea and everything in. To make the image more subtle i found a poem on Google, this poem is about a shark which i thought went with my image very well as my fish image is a lot larger than the scale of things in the background this shows a shark oversees anything in the ocean and is top of the food chain. I copy and pasted it into another layer of my fish image, to keep the image interesting i changed the font, font sizes and also the transparency, i then copy and pasted it a few times and over lapped the poem together so you could only see part of the poem so it gave you a subtle idea what the poem was about below is my image i created and below that is also the poem i used in my image.

 

A treacherous monster is the Shark
He never makes the least remark.

And when he sees you on the sand,
He doesn't seem to want to land.

He watches you take off your clothes,
And not the least excitement shows.

His eyes do not grow bright or roll,
He has astonishing self-control.

He waits till you are quite undressed,
And seems to take no interest.

And when towards the sea you leap,
He looks as if he were asleep.

But when you once get in his range,
His whole demeanor seems to change.

He throws his body right about,
And his true character comes out.

It's no use crying or appealing,
He seems to lose all decent feeling.

After this warning you will wish
To keep clear of this treacherous fish.

His back is black, his stomach white,
He has a very dangerous bite.
