Title: Self Portrait

Semester/Year: Spring 2023

Software: Photoshop

For my self portrait I composited together an image of myself that had the skyline in the background, then made the sky look like the galaxy, and added a UFO. The idea of space intrigues my mind, so I added it in the background to represent my perception of life and how I see myself. Infinite. I used photoshop to mask the galaxy to replace the blue sky that was there. I messed with the saturation, exposure, and curves so all the items had similar colors. I did this so the lighting of the objects would blend and seem more true.

I created an alien in a Rocketship traveling through space. I used the curve tool to make the wings on the plane even. I used the pen tool to create the shape of the ship.

I created a display of the northern lights along with a starry sky this represents my willpower and persistence never to give up. I added some colours and blurred them out to make the lights and I used lines, shapes, and dots to make the house and stars

This self-portrait that I put together a hand, a girl, and a galaxy represents my eagerness to escape reality and to be in my own world the hand represents reality reaching out to the young girl while she refuses to listen while looking out into the galaxy. I used photoshop to remove the background of two of the photos the put them together by adjusting the size and placement I also used smudge to my the girl seem more illusory to make it seem like she can vanish into the universe and stay there away from troubles and the problems of life and the galaxy represents the world of books, anime, and art
