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.
