Surrealist Digital Landscape


This is my surrealism piece, and I dragged a cool picture I found on the internet to use as a background, and added interesting items and made them blend in with the background as best as possible.

Warhol-esque Digital Painting


I made this project with Photoshop, and I thought it resembles the filter in Photo Booth. I duplicated a photo I took and used the tool in Photoshop to adjust the colors to my liking.

Georgia O'Keeffe-Inspired Digital Painting


This is my Georgia O'Keeffe inspired painting made with Photoshop, and my top two tools for this project were the eyedropper tool and the smudge tool.

Digital Post-Impressionist Portrait


This was one of the more challenging assignments, because I chose to do two selfies with three people, which meant I had to outline and dot six people in total. But the hard work (four weeks!) was worth it because the outcome was beautiful. I traced it in photoshop, similar to my old Mona Lisa assignment, shaded, and used a special effect brush to dot the hair, skin, and clothes.

Digital Post-Impressionist Landscape


If you've viewed my page a few times, you might've noticed a trend in my color palette. But this is a picture I chose, yes, because it fits my blue-pink-purple aesthetic. It was supposed to portray a post-impressionist vibe, but I don't think that technique is in forte yet. But I used the eyedropper tool to get close to the color, and toned the defined colors down to fit my pastel aesthetic. I then drew little worm little looking things in the sky and water to loosely give off a loose post-impressionism feel to the piece. I duplicated the sky layer to put in the water's reflection, and used a thin smudge tool on 100% to make the water look reflective.

Here's the original picture my piece was based off.

Digital Painting of Choice: Sketchbook Pro

This is my tracing of a picture I took with Carolyn, which I traced in Sketchbook Pro. I played with layers and liked how I had the ability to adjust the opacity of the layers, and that especially helped me when I drew on the hearts above our heads. I was familiar with most of the tools, because they were similar to Photoshop and "Sketchbook X", a program I've used in the past.
