Penguin on the Street
Fall 2025
Adobe Photoshop
I decided on a penguin standing in the middle of the street because I thought it was pretty strange and a bit comedic. I combined a total of three images: a penguin, a street background, and a feather to make a pattern for the text. Initially, I put a single text behind the penguin, but I accidentally duplicated it, creating two. I thought it looked pretty cool, so I decided to keep it.

Looks so amazing! Nice work I really liked your pattern.
The placement of the words is so cool, it looks like it’s on the street too!
Nice work, this is a creative way to show the text and add to the dimensionality of the image. The repetition is funny. And the color choice is good, it kind of looks like ice which seems to suggest the natural penguin habitat.
