Photoshop Portrait

I’m calling this project, Me, Myself and I because it is a self-portrait using photoshop. I chose to create this specific work because I was testing out the usage of photoshop and acorn in my work. I tried to show the shading in my face by using different colors in my skin tone.

For materials, I used the acorn application, the drawing tool and fill tool. I used the fill tool to fill in the big sections of color. I used a variety of techniques and methods including: filling and shading. While creating this work, I paid close attention to making sure that I used the correct colors on each section of my figure. I wanted my artwork to be simple and I did that by making the background solid so you can focus on the main part of the piece.

I like the way my hair looks because I wasn’t sure how the different colors would turn out. However, I struggled with my eyes which I had to redo a million times. I wanted to show a simple background and i did this by making it solid to not distract from me. If I created another work like this I may have made the background a little more multicolored. My work shows that I learned how to use a new application virtually.
