Extra Credit Pumpkin

 For extra credit I decided to design a pumpkin carving. I used the scary stencil that was provided by my teacher. For the most part I used the magnetic lasso tool. I did this so I could fill in my stencil time efficiently. The project took me around 30 minutes.


 The only problem I ran into was forgetting how to fill in a shape. I fixed this issue by doing some research on the internet. I want my audience to perceive my work as scary yet fun. I would like to inspire others to go out and carve some pumpkins of their own!

Somewhere

 For this project I decided to put myself somewhere I have never been. I chose to place myself next to Sommer Ray. I decided to place myself in this image because Sommer Rae is my favorite instagram model. I ended up using a photo from her new work out line. I wanted to use this specific photo for my art because it had a space where I could place myself without distorting the rest of the image. The colors in the image also pop out and grab the audiences attention. My original photo of myself was this. This is where I encountered my first problem. The lighting in my photo was completely different than the photo I was editing myself into. I created a new adjustment layer and played around with the contrast and lighting until I made it look the same. This is my final Image. I decided to match the setting by dressing in a gym outfit. I had to increase the art-board size a few inches taller in order to fit my self into the image. I used the cloning tool to fill in the rest of the background

Autoscopy

      For my Autoscopy I chose to use this photo of my self. I knew I wanted to create an autoscopy with an outer space vibe, so I chose a photo of me at night. This photo is relatively old and is from my first college I attended.      The project took me around 3 hours to make. I struggled mostly with the adjustment layers. It took me a while to figure out how to select which layer I wanted to adjust by its  self. The first photo I added to my art was a planet.      I chose this photo because I really liked the colors of the planet, and I thought it would match nicely with the skyline. I used some other images as well to create my final  autoscopy. My personal favorite was the bear. The bear is symbolic for being brave. I edited the color of the bear to blue, so it would fit better in my autoscopy.     I added a tattoo to my arm as well. I have always wanted a tattoo on my arm, but my mother would kill me if that ever happened. The rose is symbolic as well. It stands for love. I belie
