I had so much fun with this assignment. First, I found a picture of a really cool flower. then, I traced it in Photoshop and tried to get as close as possible to the original photo.

 Day 1- Self portrait My hair got a little messy after this  Day 2- What you wore today It was a weekend, don't judge  Day 3- Clouds Thought these patterns were rad!  Day 4- Something green Cool perspective photo of a plant  Day 5- Morning sky Pretty outlines of trees in my backyard Day 6- Worm's eye view My cat loved being up high on this ladder   Day 7- Fruit  Tomatoes are fruit! Day 8- A bad habit  My room tends to be quite messy Day 9- Someone you love  Love you mom and dad! Day 10- Childhood memory  Favorite stuffed animals Day 11- Something blue  My shadow in the pool! Day 12- Sunset  How prettyyyy Day 13- Yourself with 13 things  Collect stickers to put on my trunk  Day 14- Eyes  My cat wanted to inspect the camera Day 15- Silhouette  Artsy shadow in the rain Day 16- Long exposure  Photography for infinity!  Day 17- Technology I thought the pattern on the wall was so cool

Even though this is not a portrait of a person, I thought it was a good head shot of this horse. I chose this picture, then used different colored dots to show this horse in a new way.

For this project, I chose a picture of a fall landscape and copied it with small dots, as an impressionist painter would. This was very tedious, but I enjoyed it and i love the final result

I loved this assignment! It took me about a week to complete, but I wanted to get every detail correct. The original painting is called  The Great Wave off Kanagawa by Hokusai. For this project, I used Sketchbook Pro to recreate this painting. I first chose the painting, then I added a clear layer and traced all elements of the picture, then, I deleted the original picture to get this!
