Multiple People
Well I found out that my camera sucks, both of these pictures are really pixleated, and it makes the pictures look bad. Along with my okay skills in Photoshop. I only got 6 in the first one because if i added another one, it would have looked bad, i think its because i picked such a small area to work with.

Artist Emulation: Anthony Goicolea
His vision that he wants to convey in his Photos would be the Adolescence point of view and have the child like feel to all his pictures, where he puts himself into oddball scenes from his past memories. He uses Costumes, wigs, make-up etc... to create theses scenes to make himself look a little different from the others. When "creating" these pictures, it can take up to weeks to either take the perfect picture to the best of his ability then maybe another week to put it all together in Photo-shop. He himself does everything from designing these scenes to putting the picture together in the end. His greatest inspiration is Cindy Sherman, who also takes pictures of herself, but she takes only one and in the scene of her being in the "feminist" roles. He then got the idea to take pictures of himself. He creates pictures of his past where it looks like he could be anywhere from age 10 to 19. When actually he is in his late 30's, but that is fixed well with Makeup and the costumes.
