(Shameless Plug)

It's getting closer...

This is the story of your red right ankle...

We were asked to play primarily with text last class. We chose a lyric, poem, or phrase that we particularly liked, I chose this song, and created the text-interpretations below.

A layer assignment from a few weeks ago. Nothing too extraordinary.

500 Years in 2:52 Minutes

A friend of mine shared this video with me a few months ago, and yesterday we watched it again as a class in Computer Art. One of our final assignments is to pick a portrait, and then use Photoshop to create a self-portrait of ourselves in that likeness. Well, even though we didn't have to choose from the video, immediately upon viewing it yesterday there was one image I knew I wanted to imitate. I failed myself as an art major because couldn't place the image with an artist. So, did a little poking around online and discovered that the images that appear 2:26 minutes into the video are by Alphonse Maria Mucha. His work is absolutely incredible, and I've been pouring over it all morning. I only need to choose a particular work to model my portrait after, and I'll be on my way. As for now, I'm off to the Print Studio.

More photo-restores. This time, I worked with a photo of my dad, my grandpa, my uncle Will, and my aunt Ellen. Notice, though, I had to sculpt my uncle Will's face out of my my dads, using the clone brush primarily. Quite the challenge! I'm not a big fan of the colourization on this one, but it's a neat look I suppose.

Story Time

Apologies for the lack of new content as of late. Though my blog doesn't suggest it, things are running along quite smoothly in regards to my Senior Exhibition. Expect a catch-up post next week.
In the meantime, here is a photo-restoration I've been working on as of late. Uncle Jerry, Mother Dearest, and Aunt Milly. Cute eh?
