Pen Tool & Vector Surrealism

Used the pen tool to trace around the stop sign and delete out the background. Created my own custom shape for the floating puzzle pieces by tracing an image with the pen tool.

Healing and Patching

Restore an Old Photo

Edited the stains off the dress and some of the spotting in the background. Adjusted the color so the face is easier to see. I found the photo with some of my old family photos. It was unmarked so I have no idea who it is.

Retouch a Face

Mid-Term

The topic I chose is Hatshepsut. She was one of the first female rulers of ancient Egypt.

Lesson 6 Tutorial-Creating and Editing Text

Homework Lesson 5

Background photo was taken at Santa Cruz and the "flag" was taken at a park in Sunnyvale. I still need a lot of practice with the masking process.

Homework 6 - Typography Graphic

Added lyrics from the Pink Floyd song "The Wall" to a photo I took of some bricks on the side of a building. Added some shadow and bevel effects to the text to make it stand out from the background. Applied a filter the background to make the edges smoother and text more visible.

Clovers

Used a Gradient Map for the background clovers. Foreground clover added some glow effects. Just for practice but liked the outcome.

Cinder

Edited the window scene out and put clouds instead. It's like she's staring off into the heavens...
