This assignment was quick but fun. I chose a celebrity, then uploaded the image to Photoshop, where I traced details to make it look as much like the person as I can. Can you guess who it is?

The Cartoon Yourself assignment was incredibly fun and I loved being able to digitally create a photo of me. First, I took a picture of myself and put it in Photoshop. Then, I matched colors to what I saw in the photo, and painted over the image. I worked to shade and match my skin tone, hair, and clothing. Lastly, I spend most of my summer at Lake Champlain, so I added a photo of a lake into the background.

For this assignment, I copied the painting "Painter on His Way to Work on the Road to Tarascon" by Vincent Van Gogh. I used different brushes to make the picture look as realistic as I could. I chose colors that matched the original and worked section by section. Finally, I added a "crosshatch" filter to complete the project

 I traced an image of "The Scream" painting by Edvard Munch and captured as many details as possible. Then, I colored in the drawing in and added my own details to make it look as much like a painting as I could. I dragged in a picture of my face and hands and placed it over my digital painting. I really liked this assignment because I got to experiment with more tools and abilities

For this assignment, I traced the Mona Lisa in Photoshop and colored in the drawing. Then, I uploaded an image of a sunset and Lake Champlain into the background to further customize this piece.
