Assignment 2 was to create a landscape using Dreamweaver. We had to include gradients, a living thing, a house, a sun, a cloud, and a flower. We had learned how to code quadratic and bezier curves and make shapes other than triangles and rectangles.

With our sixth assignment, we moved into Photoshop. To familiarize ourself with the basic functions, we were to take at least 15 images and crop, cut, and paste them onto a canvas. No white space could be left visible and only living things such as people, animals, and plants could be used. We given a set amount of tools to use to get the final image we were looking for. For my images, I choose movies characters, musicians, and some animals and plants that I liked. I really focused on overlapping to show depth and to make sure no white space was left open.

Our fifth assignment, and probably the one I enjoyed the most, was to create a self portrait in Illustrator. To do this, I took a picture of myself with my digital camera. I ended up choosing to do a selective color photo so that only the blue shirt in my picture was colored and all else was black and white.

To get the illusion of depth in my hair, I used different values of gray and different brushes. I did a translucent dark grey area over where all my hair would be and then began drawing each individual strand of hair until I was satisfied with my results.

With adding a little extra shading at the very end with the paintbrush, I think I created a realistic looking color version. My final product is not the original photo I chose. It wasn't until the end of the last day we had in class to work that I decided to change my photo. I had all Thanksgiving break to work on it, so I knew I would be able to get this one done easily. For the colors I chose, I mostly just went off what I thought they might be. I did do some googling to see what colors Amish people wore and that influenced my clothing colors. Originally I had googled a skin tone color code but it was looking a bit more orange that I'd like so I played around with different tones, and finally came to ...
