Wolf

Used the...hot light? I don't really know which light it was. It was just the only one that was out at the time. The shadow and John's eyes were very intense, and it made his eyes look like a bright blue, kind of like a husky. These two factors, I thought, seemed dark and wolf like, hence the simple addiction of a wolf into the picture. Originally, I had wanted to make the wolf's head part of his own, like he was changing or something like that, but it didn't work out too well. I actually like how this looks more, since its like he has an inner beast instead. Altered the coloring of the original portrait to make it more blue and cool. Yeah.



And an extra edit. Because I like this photo, even if it is a snapshot.

Painted Face

Some odd days ago, John wanted me to paint his face like they did on America's Next Top Model. I did that, as evident by my Maya Angelou photograph. But also on that day, we painted up my face too just for the hell of it. After taking photos of each other, I wanted to take some of myself in my own style of photography since John and I have very different views.
Today I thought, these look kind of plain on their own, so I wanted to spice things up a bit and photoshop them. Lots of experimenting with different things and brushes and layers and all those other good things.
I think I managed to hit every season but spring haha.

I swear, dolls have the best clothes. And really stylish shoes. I'm so jealous.

Pixels


Branching out into Pixel work on Photoshop. It's a very time consuming project, and I have lots of respect for Pixel artists. I've got a project in mind, I just gotta get the main images actually done first on paper or photograph before I start the pixeling process...

The one above is originally from a drawing.
This one's base came from a photograph.

Still much to do and learn. Mmm...
