Avatar Bieber Style


This is one of my Avatars. If you could not tell, it is a picture of Justin Bieber, teen singer heart throb. I changed the color of his skin and his hair by using the color replacement tool. I also messed with all of the features in his face by using different liquifying tools. I am pleased with the way he ended up looking. He is like a handsome, happy avatar. He kind of looks like a model alien.

FRUIT MEN


These are my fruit men. Their names are Harry and Bob. They are made completely out of fruit. I thought this project was pretty difficult. It was hard to make the fruit realistic looking. This was modeled after the artist Arcinboldo. He is really good at making them look like real people. 

Stencil Project 2



This is my second stencil project. With a picture of a foot, I created a rainbow color stencil. I used the Gradient tool to create the background. I also used some photo filters on the colors in the feet. I really enjoyed this project. It was one of my favorites. It really uses balance, rhythm, proportion, dominance, and unity.

Stencil Project


This is my color wheel, stencil project. My theme was fruit. I used different colored fruit to represent the rainbow. Each color of the rainbow has a different piece of fruit. I also applied filters to each piece. I used the gradient tool in the background. I learned how to stencil pieces, which was pretty difficult to do. I am very pleased with how the final product came out. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS




Christmas is almost here!! With it just around the corner I thought I would make a festive collage filled with holiday images. I am so excited for Christmas!!

Chair Artwork

These are chairs that I have created. We had to "cover" the chairs using different designs. The top chair I just used random patterns that I thought were pretty. On the second chair all the stripes you see are from Claude Monet's paintings. The most difficult part of this project was creating the shadows. I had to copy the image and then paint it gray. I then used the Warp tool to make it appear as a shadow. I also used the Warp tool to cover the chair with new "fabric." This was a fun project but the shadows were extremely difficult to create. However, I did get lots of practice with the warp tool!!
