Artist Reflection


The strongest aspect of my work is the turtle body. It's the strongest aspect because it is the base of the rest of the body, the dog head and dog tail. An aspect that can be improved on is the blending of the tail into the turtle body. It can be improved on because its not blended very well.

The easiest thing about this project was picking the animals that you wanted and playing with them to see how it could be good together. The most difficult part of this project was trying to get them to blend nicely together. It was hard to get a color that would match the turtle skin for the dog head so the dog head wasn't white and so it didn't look weird.

I demonstrated the objective by using the stamp tool and the healing brush. I used the stamp tool by copying the eye from the turtle and put it on the dog head to make it look like the dog has turtle eyes. I also used the stamp tool for taking the print of the turtles neck and I put it on the dog neck and blended it together to make it look realistic. I used the healing brush by painting the cheetah print on the turtle shell.

  The strongest aspect of my work is the dolphin that I painted. I think it is the strongest because I had to paint the Dolphin just based off of the regular picture. The aspect that can be improved in my digital painting is the ocean in the back, it looks cool but I feel like there could be more of a ocean ripple pattern in it that could make it look more realistic.

  The easiest thing about this project was absorbing the color with the eyedropper tool. It was the easiest because all you had to do was absorb color from the original picture than you used mixer brush tool and blended the colors together. The most difficult part of this project was trying to blend them just right. You had to blend the colors together so that they looked realistic.

  I demonstrated the objective by using eyedropper tool to absorb the color from the original and than used the mix paint brush to paint the colors onto the layer I was painting my digital painting on and did that multiple times. If I could do this activity again I would change the picture that I did to something a little better and maybe something that can be a little more challenging next time.
