surreal self portraits 

Purpose:

• To express yourself using the concepts of surrealism;

• To learn about surreal artists such as Salvador Dali, Renee Magritte, Frida Khalo and contemporary photographers: Rachel Baran, Laura Williams, Manu Pombrol;

• To continue to explore advanced Photoshop tools to create a seamless, convincing surreal self portrait.

What skills are necessary to be able to create a surreal self-portrait using your camera and PhotoShop? Please be specific, citing examples in your work

for this assignment I think having a plan is important before you start photographing. I think it would be hard to try and put something together with photos that you previously have. It is so much easier when you have a plan or even some ideas on what you want to do so then you can photographs the right things and create a good surreal photo in photoshop
