Avatar 2

Description: This is my second avatar, personally, i like this one better. i put a lot more effort into this one. it took a very long time to find the monocle and the mustache and the hat. it took me 10 minutes to find out the name of the glass, it is called a monocle. This is my alter ego as a london man. I like their accents and the city itself. their customs and the way they do things are different, yet interesting. I enjoyed this project. It was very fun to make and i really like the picture that came out.

Description: This was a very simple project that took around 10 minutes to make. i simply took a picture of myself on photo booth and edited it on photoshop. i erased the background of my photo booth picture, leaving only myself. Then i used the warp tool and liquify tool to change my face. i enlarged my eyes and made myself have a half-smile. Then i took images from google and copied them onto my picture. i found a picture of a halo and wings. Then i found a high quality of the sky. The picture seems to blend in well because of all the white. I am wearing a white hat along with a white hoodie. This is my alter ego avatar. It is a picture of an angel, i know, pretty sarcastic.

Marla Project

Description: Marla is seen as a great child artist. She has received a lot of media attention for her paintings. She became famous at around the age of 4 and her paintings sold for thousands of dollars. She painted abstract artwork. This is my "Marla project". i simply used different options on the brush tool. I wanted my picture to represent the sun. The sun shines down on the earth from the cold and dark space. i wanted to put the colors to the extreme so things could pop out. This painting is completely inspired by Marla.

Chair Project

Description: This was one of the hardest projects i have ever worked on. It took many trials to achieve. The Warp tool was very hard to master, i tried it many times but i just couldn't get it right. Finally, i somehow warped the shadow to the point where it looked somewhat realistic. This is one of my least favorite projects. It is extremely hard and it takes a very long time to do.
