Medusa

This is the picture I took for Medusa. I wanted to show Medusa's evil side, after Athena turned her into a monster. She turned her hair into snakes and made her eyes turn anyone into stone. In order to modernize it I just made her hair really big and crazy. I changed the color of her eyes in photoshop to show that after Athena changed her, she could turn people into stone. I also put lots of makeup on her and intensified it to put focus on her eyes. I think it does look like a modern medusa because i changed her hair and make up the way i did. Instead of playing out the scene of medusa, and how she got to be the way she looks like, I just wanted to take a picture of how medusa "looked" afterwards, because we could only do one picture. I would have liked to do a bunch of different pictures as a series but since we could only do one I thought i would just put emphasis on just Medusa.
