Photomontage

I used an image of a cat mask with blue and gold/yellow on it. I copied and pasted many different images  of blue into the blue parts, trying to keep the highlights. I mostly used images of cats for that. I put a lot of yellow flower images for the yellow part. I also added an eye in the mask.

Hands

I took images of my friend's hands in different shapes. I put them together using different sizes. I overlaid colors using different blend modes. For the frame, I made many copies of a hand and added different effects on it.

Naive

I drew this cat using photoshop and a tablet. I colored it and everything using the tablet and different brush strokes. I also took the planet and reflected it in the cat's eye. The background is an image I found, but could create with time. I call this "Naive" because the cat is looking out into outer space, not knowing everything that's really out there in the whole galaxy.

Planets

I love scenes of planets, outer space and blue, so I thought it would be fun to make one.

Midterm

I added all the images of places and things I think make up Charlottesville. Famous for UVA and Monticello where Jefferson lived. I blended all the images together to display it. 

Make Over

I used a number of techniques to fix this woman up. I whitened her teeth and whites of her eyes, removed some freckles/ blemishes. I softened her skin after removing the wrinkles. I also made the color of her eyes a little now intense.

Book Cover

I chose to create a cover for "The Hunger Games" a book I haven't read. The main characters are a boy and a girl so I combined their faces. The girl has a symbol (the bird and arrow) which I put in the corners. There is a lot of fighting in this book so I pt a black background because it seemed dark. I also added a little bit of read because children fight to the death in this book and it suggests blood.
