In this class I had a great time learning and discovering Photoshop. We worked on many different projects to help us learn the fundamental tools of Photoshop. In our final project, "Teacher Creature," we use all of our newly learned skills to create a layered masterpiece combining a well loved teacher with a creature! You can see my work below.

Playing With Text
What I first did was change the background to red and put the text fire down on the background. Then what I did was change the the text to clear and add shadows.
Hair Changing Project |
How I made this artwork was in an easy way to learn. How I made this was by changing the background and adding text with a font I like. Then I selected the text and warped it into a wave like curve.

How I made this art was by finding a picture that I though would be interesting to change color of the hair. I started by making a new layer and adding my image into the new layer. Then I took the brush tool and softened it for a lighter brush effect. Then I could start painting the hair a different color.
Letter Portrait
What was it like for you to do this as your first Digital Art Project at Animas?
For me I enjoyed this project because I got to show the different ways that I can express myself and show my name in a fun and exciting way.
Did you impact your perspective on what Digital Art could mean?
Yes this class met my expectations and still blew me away. When I was making this I thought that its was a great project to do. I think that this class has and will continue to have a great impact on me because of the nice environment and the fun projects that we will continue to do.

Teacher Creature
In summary, I learned so much this semester in this class. I am excited to learn more. I feel like I really pushed myself, especially in the "Teacher Creature" project, to master the art of layers (30 total layers). This class will be useful to me throughout high school and beyond. I hope I have the opportunity to take this class every year.
For me this project was a blast to do. It was very simple to finish. What I did was copy the image on a new layer, reset and twist.
With this project I made I am not the most happy with but it was a grate learning experience. What I did was find two panting's and cut out circle and add a blue gradient overlay. Then I added an inner and outer glow, and finally I added the pant brush splatter and made several lairs.
As I reflect on what I did for these four projects I member the blast had a working on all of them. They were amazing project's. I would do them again because of what I lured and what I made.

Hi, I'm Mitchell Bidart and I am a human. I am a human on this planet trying to live my best life and get through school. I think of myself as a nice prison, or at least I try to be. But at the end of the day I think of myself as a consciousness in a meat suit living, breathing, and being me.
