My Self Portrait Final

Part 1: Rastor

Title: Things That Make Me Happy

Semester/Year: Spring 2024

Software: Adobe Photoshop

Description: For my self portrait i included the things that make me happy in my everyday life. I added the cat sleeping because it reminded me of my cat and i enjoy seeing him sleep in my room. The jukebox was originally supposed to be a record player but i wasn’t able to find a good photo so i used a jukebox instead and i it also shows that i enjoy history especially the mid 20th century. The retro gaming poster is to show my love for games both old and new.

Part 2: Vector

Title: Surprised Robot

Semester/Year: Spring 2024

Software: Adobe Illustrator

Description: I chose a make a robot because there’s this song i have been listening too lately that sounds like its sung by a robot. I chose blue and orange as my colors because they compliment each other. I added the gradient in the background because i thought it looked too plain. I wrote MMP 100 in a silly font and distorted it to contrast with the solid and sharp robot. The hardest part for me was adding the gradient and finding how to add a color to it.

Self Portrait Update

This is my first time trying using any editing software and trying to get used to making a picture so i’ve been familiarizing myself with it. I plan on putting things in that represent me like video games and music and my fondness for cats.
