Stamp four - final outcome

 
It may be suggested in this fourth and final stamp that the focal point in it was not intended to be the focal point of it whatsoever. The large trace of half of Jesus Christ's face on the left hand side of the stamp could be viewed as the main focus of this image because of its size. Though the intended focal point of this image is the silhouette of the spider found just right to centre of this image. The spider is largely significant to that of the native Brazilian Wandering Spider as it is famous for being known as possibly the world's most deadliest of all arachnids because of its aggressiveness and because of it known to being extremely territorial as well. Though back to the image of Jesus Christ, this could cause confusion as to why it is significant to Brazil though it is simply because of the large amount of the Brazilian population that are know Christians; this fact is evident through the extremely large national landmark of Christ the Redeemer. Also with this image of Jesus Christ, I have created it in the style of which I have due to my research on the work of illustrator Pablo Jeffer da Silva. In many of his images you will find a large image of half of woman's face, so I have tried to add this to my work by using the face of Jesus Christ; a very significant figure to Brazilian culture which makes him a very well known figure to a high amount of the Brazilian population. I have also used other techniques of Pablo Jeffer da Silva's work in this final stamp by once again using the gradient tool and flares.
