Out of Proportion

To make this look out of proportion, I shrunk the goalkeeper to make the goal look huge.

Fine Arts Festival Poster

This poster is used for the Fine Arts Festival, a festival where every school contributes artwork into it. I designed it by using some ideas of previous posters, but mostly my own new ideas.

Softened Skin

For this project, I used the patch tool, which was the only new tool I used.

Reflections

I chose to do a mirror image reflection using this person.

David Hockney


David Hockney is a Painter/Photographer. He is known for taking multiple pictures and blending them into one single image. His style is shown above, he takes a group of pictures, and then places them in a pattern which makes it look like one picture.

Portrait Photography




I made an Ink Sketch, Cross processed, and Made a new custom shape in these pictures. For the Ink sketch, i made it into a drawing that looks like its been painted in ink after outlining everything. For the cross-processing i made it look like i dipped a picture in chemicals it shouldn't have been dipped in. And finally, for the custom shape, i created a custom shape using pen paths and color dumping.

Downtown Mall





On the Downtown Mall, we took a variety of pictures to turn them into a type of "Where's Waldo?" search. To turn them into these types of pictures, we put two of the same image side-by-side or above-and-below one another. Next we hid or added something new to the second picture.
The most important thing to look for when choosing an image to age, is that the image needs to not have any modern aspects showing. So no phones, H-D TVs, or computers in it. I used coffee stain brushes as well as ripped brushes, to give it that worn look that all old photos have.

Collage

I modeled my collage off of the artist David Brady. To make my collage look like his, I used a patchwork effect to the image, plus a rock and wolf above all of the textures.

Warm and Cool hands



Warm colors add a yellow effect to the picture, and can be used to lighten the mood of an image. Cool and Emerald colors add blue and green effects, and can be used to sadden the mood of images.

Glowing Lights


I used the pen tool to create an S curve in the first picture and turned it multiple times to create that image. For the second i made a straight line and then chalked the end, then created alot of lines coming out of it to give it a magical effect.

Typography

Typgraphy is the use of text to create an image. I used typography to create a flower and a sun.

Camera RAW





Camera Raw is a Photo Shop mini-plug in which allows you to make different adjustments by moving sliders. The advantages are that you can do all the adjustments faster than in normal Photo Shop.

Spooky Face

I used the "Creepy Eyes" tutorial. It was an easy turotial to follow, as i only needed to add lens flares and (if i wanted) a gradiant map to make the image darker. I used the eraser tool to get rid of some of the flare because it was over most of the image.

Carter Mountain





We went on a class field trip to Carter Mt., a local apple orchard. We had to take a total of 24 pictures, but only edit 5 of them.
