Module 9

Photo was captured on my road trip from Chicago to Portland. The photo itself is from a church in Kansas.

 

Steps Taken:

 

Changed width and height

 

Increased resolution

 

Created a new clean page for starting with a new palette as an artist would start with a clean white canvas for a painting

 

Used Lasso Tool and Magic Wand Tool

 

Drew outline around image being removed

 

Used Move Tool

 

Did not cut image of tree completely but rather moved it though use of the move tool to copy the image into my collage.

 

Utilized Edit then Transform then Scale

 

Manipulated images: changed size to make them larger

 

Changed opacity from 100% to 45%

 

Used the marquee tool to select part of picture number two which was one of the church towers

 

Copied over image to collage

 

Cropped out part of photo and used eraser tool also changed eraser size to make the change.

 

Titled new layer: Tower

 

Changed arrangements of layer order to provide for order of images on my collage which also emphasized a visual pop to take place on the collage

 

Utilized Transform then Distort option

Used Marquee tool again

 

Attempted to capture sky part of picture three

 

Created new layer and used clone stamp tool

 

Instead of covering tree or cutting it out completely from the photo and impacting it used clone feature to copy sky parts

 

Increased hardness and opacity to not make the change noticeable

 

Utilized eraser tool once again

 

Softened tree appearance to give it more of a foggy look

 

Linked layers together and used perspective changes

 

Changed properties of a layer from normal to multiply and changed opacity and fill

 

Skewed by using transform

 

Went to fourth image used select all copied and pasted it into layer

 

Done
