This is my other submission made in graphic design class at Andover High School in Andover, MA

I made this in Graphic Design class at Andover High School in Andover, MA. The idea is that the bird is standing on top of the sky, which for the bird is like a mountain

Hey there -- I made a blackbird with leaves. The bird was drawn after the provided image and painted with watercolor, photographed, and loaded into Photoshop to be manipulated. The lines covering the bird are from a sketchbook drawing that was also photographed and loaded into PS. Leaves and sky courtesy of you guys.

This image was a challenge. Typically I shy away from fussing with Photoshop or other imaging software, I like to make my work by hand - holding the pencil and brush, feeling the paint flow and flood a page. I take real pleasure in that, it's a rush. But the nature of the challenge called for some computer magic, so I figured I might as well marry the two. Also thought working with Photoshop and by hand complimented the story told on the program, that of Ms. Taylor favoring the computer and Mr. Uelsmann being a darkroom guy.

This image is also being used for my current illustration project, 365 Critters. It's the image for day 219 and will be emailed to a participant in Buenaventura, Colombia.

Thanks -- really had a lot of fun with this one.

Free form surreal abstract or something. I intentionally worked loosely for this one and just kept working it. Man in the hat + blackbird + sky + marble head + leaf + a whole bunch of filters, blending and image adjustments =

For this one I used only the provided elements. First, with the same hand I colorized for my previous submission, "New Holy Trinity" and the man I colored by the same process described in the notes of that piece. For his suit and hat I adjust color, hue and saturation until I had what I wanted. The tie is made composed of one of the leaves with it's hue and saturation adapted. I choose the path for a background and began heightening the contrast while lowering the saturation to all of the elements in turns until I had a balance. I added the butterfly early on but later added the bird to echo the subtle tension of the possibility that the butterfly and bird may take off at any moment or movement by the man.

I started off by building on my most recent photoshop piece, "Michelangelo's Creation of Batman" and added the image of the hand. I created three tinted layers of the hand in Blue, yellow and pink. Then using a light eraser I began slowly removing from the blue layer and a little from the yellow layer so as to capture the sense of veins and calluses.
Next I brought in the sky, upping the brightness and blowing out the contrast so as to compliment the colors of the foreground. It needed a better hill to replace the one int the painting and transition to the sky more smoothly. Finally I used the leaves to build a pattern to cover an awkward element of the original painting where an are appears cropped off.
All together I call it "New Holy Trinity"

This is weird. Hola!
Audios!

I wasn't sure where to begin with this project, but like most great turn outs, I just got started... I began with a photo I had taken of my friend in our schools main hall. I flipped that to give it a scary feel and then pieced the clouds and hands into the work. As this is my first composite, I'm really happy how this turned out! Can't wait to build another :)

The blackbird seemed at home in Notra Dame-even more so with the walls removed.

The Nature of Nature. Wasn't able to get all elements in there, just enough I hope.
