Somewhere Between Fashion, Art and Too Much Homework, That's Where I'll Be


These are my most recent assignments for Photoshop 101. We could have chosen any photo we wanted but I really wanted to work on some fashion pictures. Whether or not you know Photoshop, this teacher really likes to pile on the work so I've fallen a bit behind.

The top one is our simulated watercolor project. I used a photo I took at a recent fashion show, and am quite proud of how it turned out. Because of schoolwork, it's taken me longer to go through and resize the 100+ photos from this show . I think in the end there's only going to be like 30 good pics. I really need an SLR camera (-_-'). The dress is by local designer Oscar Fierro.

The bottom one is simulated oils. I don't like it as much as the watercolor but I hope for an A. I didn't spend as much time on it as I had to move on to the bookwork. The dress is by Norma Villanueva from a small fashion show she did. I'm working on a post for these pictures along with the designer info.


So what do you think? Do they look like watercolor and oil paintings? I'm thinking about doing another watercolor with a different photo once classes are over. It was kind of fun and the finished product is worthy of printing. (^_^)
