Drew, the One-eyed Monster
My art piece, Drew, the One-eyed Monster, wasn’t an easy assignment. This task required me to research multiple photos I planned on using. For this assignment I wasn’t given specific instruction on what exactly to do, so I researched on YouTube how to create a cyclops on photo shop, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DkfQxkF3e8 . It wasn’t easy finding a resource that showed me specifically what to do but through a lot of researching I came across a video that showed me directly what to do. I learned how to eliminate a person’s eyes using the clone stamp tool. This piece is special to me because this was one of not many assignments I was assigned to create on my own.

House Trace
For this assignment I was assigned to research my dream house and trace all the lines that are visible on the house. This assignment wasn’t so difficult. The only problem I had with this assignment was that sometimes instead of creating lines with the pen tool, the lines would turn into triangle shapes when I didn’t need to create a triangle shape. For this assignment I used a tutorial in class. In this assignment I learned how to use the pen tool and how to fill in shapes and spaces using the paint bucket tool. This assignment is special to me because this is an art piece of my ideal dream home.

Darth Maul
My Darth Maul piece wasn’t an easy assignment for me. I had a lot of trouble trying to put all of the pieces together. I had the most trouble in putting my background together because it required multiple steps I wasn’t familiar with. In the end I was able to put all the pieces together and my assignment turned out decent and better than what I expected. I became familiar with how to use the gradient tool. This assignment has helped me create other art pieces I created on my own with no help of tutorials. I used this tutorial, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_q2I0G5c8U8 , with this image of Zac Efron.

Angel
Creating my angel art piece was an easy task for me.This assignment required me to gather a lot of images I wanted to use in my angel. It also required me to isolate the pieces I put together and duplicate my backgrounds to blend them together to make them look realistic and better. As I created my angel, I somewhat knew how I wanted my angel to look like so I was fast on creating my final piece and also because I didn’t use a tutorial. For this assignment I learned how to isolate images accurately. This assignment is by far my best art piece I’ve created.

Cat Eyes
For this assignment I was assigned to research an image of a cat where the cats eyes are clear to see in the image. I chose this particular image of this cat because i was intrigued by how wide and big the cat’s eyes were opened. In this assignment I didn’t necessarily follow a tutorial. Instead I used the hue and saturation tool. I traced the eyes of the cat which I then used hue and saturation to change the color of the cat eyes to my desired color. This assignment is one of my best art pieces.

PegasusCreating my pegasus assignment was similar to the angel task. This assignment was somewhat easy to me but I struggled a lot with attaching the wings to the pegasus. I didn’t necessarily use a tutorial for this assignment. For this assignment I became more familiar with warp tool. I learned how to use this tool on the of the horse. This assignment is one of my decent art pieces.
