Stamp 2:


Stamp 2:

In my second stamp, as he background image, I chose the famous shopping centre ‘paco do ouvidor’ which opened just a short while ago on December 12th 2012, I chose this image as my background image because I wanted a wide variety of building in the background, which different people may find familiar, therefore will realise what these buildings are, some of the older buildings may have also been easily recognised but I wanted to use a wide range of buildings as to create stamps that were not copies, I wanted them to be linked together in certain ways but I also wanted them to be different in other ways. For this particular stamp, as the building is relativity new, I wanted to use something around that time period to act as a different aspect of my stamp, I used the logo from the fifa 2014 tournament because as the rio Olympics is 2016, it would make a two year time gap between each accession and would all be in the same generation, also I found that as this would be a relatively big event (The 2014 FIFA World Cup will be the 20th FIFA World Cup, an international men's football tournament, that is scheduled to take place in Brazil from 12 June).It would have a lot of followers that would recognise the event, and would tie together with the rio de Jannerio Olympics well. On this image I also placed a trace of a butterfly, this was from an image that I had taken on a trip we took to a place called Tropical World. With a lot of Brazilian animals which we were able to see and take pictures of that we could later use to contribute towards are work. I placed this image on the drawing of the Fifa world cup because I thought it would tie the stamp together, creating a flowing feel to the stamps. As I did with the other stamp, I copied the shaped that I had drawn to form the shape of a quarter of a flag and pasted them on to my second image so it would keep its shape, it would save me time, and most of all it would match the other stamp perfectly, forming the Brazilian flag after all four stamps were completed.
