Rock Band with Cat and Dog
Spring 2024
Photoshop
For my self portrait, I wanted to use a rock show setting, since rock is my favorite music genre, but I wanted to also show cats and dogs since they are very cute and funny. I used posterize and a gradient map to get the cool retro look on the photo. I also use various masking settings like feather as well as level adjustments on the animals to make them fit more in with the vibe.

Weird Blue Shape Alien
Spring 2024
Illustrator
I used illustrator to make a weird looking Blue Alien using shapes, pens, and gradients. I used the circles to make the hair, and rectangles to make the eyes. I used the pen to make the weird moustache as well as the moute. I then used gradient as well as shape builder to make a crescent moon object on the top left. To make everything cooler, I made the background, letters, and crescent a gradient fill between orange and purple!
