So here are some pictures that I took this past week. I am not sure that they really capture what I want them to but I am thinking of how I can change the background to change the content of the photo. I think the photos turned out really beautifully and I will deffinately be taking many more photos in the next week or two. The empty picture frame is where I will be putting the original artwork thanks to some of you wonderful ideas! Let me know what you all think.
Presentation of Book
I am going to have my book made rather than make it myself because I want my book to look similar in structure to an art history book. I would like to display both the original image and then my image side by side if possible. I am going to try to make my book have somewhere from 10-15 pages.

I would like to make my book a standard 8x10 size through blurb.
On the front of my book I would like to have an image of me that looks like I am trapped in a frame.
On the back of my book I would like to have a picture of me holding the picture of me trapped in the frame.
I would like to put my artist statement on the back flap of the book so that whoever is looking at the book can look at it first with a fresh mind and their own opinions before seeing what my intent was for the pictures. I don't want to have any text to go along with the pictures. I think I would like to have the pictures full spread over the pages.

Okay, so I was super sick this weekend and had to hold off on my photoshoot but I decided to at least post some more detailed ideas for one of my selected artworks.
In this picture I am thinking of portraying the working woman. I would like to change the background of this one to something like a brick wall of a building. The woman will probably have a pencil behind her ear instead of a flower. I'm not sure if I want to portray the woman in this one as more of a hard working business woman or more of a hard working waitress type of woman. Either way I want to show this woman as a hard working individual who also embraces her beauty as a woman.

So before I actually do a photoshoot for my artist book I need to make sure that I have all of my ideas clear for each of the artworks that I chose to reinvent. I think I have decided that for each photo I will have a certain theme. Hopefully when next week comes around I will have had time to take some actual photos for my book.
This is the picture that I want to use for my first photo.
In this one as I mentioned before I am going to move her hand slightly. I think the theme for this one is going to be knowledge. I am thinking about having a book laying on her and maybe some reading glasses as she rests her eyes for a second from reading. I might even have her laying on a stack of books. I'm not sure if I should change the background or not. I want to make sure that I stay clear from making the picture seem school girlish at all.
Here is another picture that I definately want to use.
In this picture I would really like to have the girl putting on a pair of combat boots. I would like to make her seem a little more rugged and beat up as if she has been in battle. I guess the theme for this one would be something such as courage or bravery.
