This is the project that I had to do for Midterm. I had to try to copy the print-out copy of the image as best as possible. I used drop shadow and outer glow on the words Happiness is. Also, I used the twirl tool for the lollipop and an inner shadow on the bushes on the tree.

In this project, I made a holiday poster for Halloween. I used contour continuation and object placement to make an image that satisifed me. All six images are graphic images that are all below 100% opacity. Also, there is no shadowing or shading on any of the images. 

I created this magazine so that people who were interested in softball would want to buy and read it. There are six main stories on the cover, along with an original barcode, and a picture of me pitching for a travel softball team.

This was the first magazine project that I had, in which I had to pick a magazine and place my face on the body of the person on the cover. I picked a Vogue magazine that had Heidi Klum on the cover, and I removed her face from it. Then, I took a picture of me, cropped my face from my body, and copy and pasted my head to the magazine. Since the magazine was black and white, I only had to try to match the black and white of the rest of her body with my face, instead of trying to match our skin tone. Also, I used the smudge tool to smudge her name out on the front cover.

In this project, I created a menu for an Italian restaurant, which I named Villa Christina. I used a drop shadow on the name of the restaurant and on the pizza image. I downloaded a unique font type named Cigno, which I used throughout the whole menu. I used lighter colors because I felt that it would make the menu look more professional and appetizing. I put Italian food that I enjoy, as well as common, rich italian food on my menu. 

I created this witch by creating shapes with the polygon lasso tool and elliptical tool such as the nose and mouth. All of the parts are simple shapes that have been altered in small ways, and I put shadows on the nose, cheeks, and chin. I used the smudge tool to blend the colors under the eyes, and around the corners of the mouth.  I made the hair by using the polygon lasso tool to create random shapes and lines, that would look similar to hair.

For this project, I used the elliptical tool to create circles and overlap them. I arranged the layers so that it looked similar to the lines on a pumpkin. Then, I flattened the shape, added a stem, and put a shadow on the parts where there would've been. I created two more comparable pumpkins, and used the distortion tool to tilt them. Finally, I put a yellow tint in the background, and placed the pumpkins on an elliptical circle to make it look like their shadow.
