Midterm

Went for the abstract approach

4 Part Project

I was feeling a cosmic theme for this one, so I merged that background with a gradient to get it to look more like a galaxy. The object that was manipulated is a 3D render created with a C4D program (I didn't make it) and coupled with different filters, as well as shadow and glow.

Visual Puns

The project was to create 4 visual puns that give a literal view of some words.

Silhouette

For the cheetah theme I found a pattern and applied it to the grass brush. I felt the African sunset was appropriate and it fits well.

As for my portrait, I added the mars planet looking thing and used the liquify tool to create the illusion of movement. The brush tool was used on a very light opacity and then blurred to get the blue green effect around Earth. Finally, the Earth's hue was altered slightly and sharpened.
