For this artist statement I chose the picture of my cat titled "Glowing Eyes". My cat's name is max and yes those are really his eyes, I guess when I took the photo the flash was on and his pupils disappeared. I thought this would be a good image for mask because I knew I could make everything else black and white except his eyes since they were so bright. It was challenging to get a good angle of him and for him to sit still. I blurred out the background so whoever's looking at the image doesn't really see what's going on too much in the background and their eyes will draw right to my cat.
