BW to Color

 


For my monochrome piece I choose my favorite color, purple. I chose a variety of shades from the darkest to the lightest. I like how the shades compliment each other and and make the piece really pop. 


For my complimentary colors I choose green and pink. The colors reminded me of gogort and the Fairly Odd Parents. I think the colors really make each other pop and make the piece very bright. 


For my analogous colors I wanted to choose ones that gave me a comic-book feel. The mix of colors in this piece gives me an Andy Warhol feel, and was inspired by this piece on Marylin Monroe.

I feel like I have no control over my own situation any more and I am just peacefully watching time pass me by.

In the video they also used the blur effects, they add a lot to an image depending on which one you pick. In the video he uses the Gaussian blur to emphasize the glow effect.  The second video shows how to blend two images together. He used the quick selection tool to select the model from one image and brought her into the next using a clipping mask. He then uses the paintbrush tool to bring more of the first image into the second, creating a blended effect.  In the third video, he shows us how to one again blend two images but this time using an exposure method. This is my favorite of the three videos because he shows you a lot of the keyboard shortcuts for the functions and tools. His use...
