Impressionistic Self Portrait


This self portrait I first cropped myself from a picture taken with someone else, then used different filters to get a different effect, such as film grain, the half-tone pattern, and the diffuse glow. I changed the RGB colors using just the blue in channels, turning the red and yellow off. In color balance I changed them to 100% for each as well as changed the shadows and highlighting in certain areas.

Matisse assignment


This assignment was done on Adobe Illustrator to create something similar to the work of Matisse or Picasso. I did something similar to one of Matisse's paintings where he uses stars contrasting with his background. Blue and orange are complementary colors and contrast greatly with one another, and I added yellow since it has the same effect.
