Warhol


As i did for my Opie, i used the same image and dropped it into photoshop. I then cut my whole body out and made it into a new layer. I then used the paint smudge tool to start colour my hair in. I made it different shades as i tried to get it as near to myself as possible. I created the smudging effect by using the smudge tool to get all the colours of my hair together and when i was happy with that i started on my face and body. For my face i used a brightening tool to get the shiny effect and to get the smudging effect on my lips and also my eyes. I brightened my eyes and lips up by using a red for my lips and a bright blue for my eyes to make them stand out. I then finished by adding a pink background to my warhol to make my warhol stand out more from the background. 

Opie self

I took a picture of myself and then dropped it into photoshop. I then used tools to draw round my original photo and to match up the colours of my skin and hair etc... I cut each bit of myself out individually for example starting with my hair as it was the largest bit in the photo. I then matched up the different colours in my hair and tried to get it to a match with my own colour. I then drew round my face but cut my eyes out as i was going to do them on a separate layer. I matched my face up with my hair so they went together. I then finished my opie off with drawing round my original photo of my eyes and drew them onto my opie face. I then added eye brows, a nose and lips. To finish it off i cut the background of my original photo out and made it one colour pink.
