week one

For the first project, I googled my name to find images that represent me. I chose the cassette tape and the guitar because I love music; it has always been a large part of my life. When I created this image, I didn't really know what I was doing with photoshop, so it didn't turn out the way that I had imagined it would. Honestly I'm not sure what tools I used to create this.

Kayaking Montage

Montage Project:

Kayaking is an activity that my family and I have gotten into this past summer and greatly enjoy. To me, kayaking is a relaxing experience that allows for family bonding as well as an escape from the chaos of everyday life

I created this image by layering a transparent photo of the river with over banking trees ontop of the image of the two kayaks on shore. I then created a mirrored pattern along the bottom using a photo of lined up paddles. Once the pattern was completed, I used the eraser tool to take to sky out of the image leaving just the paddles emerging into the other two images.
