For our assessment Martin, Fergal and I chose to re-write the ‘love story’ of Adam and Eve. In our holiday snaps style story  Adam is busy making the moves on Eve when she spots the snake, she acts quickly, catches him off guard, lobs an apple at him, knocks him off the tree to the ground… dead and they decide to celebrate good times and have a summer barbeque with satan the snake as the main course…. Bon appetit! 

In today’s lesson we learnt how to use the crop tool, the healing tool and the clone tool. We worked on the two photographs above to practice using these tools. It was great!!

The images above are a combination of my fashion drawings, some little gift tag drawings of Paris I found in a book shop, a photo of a lion and  a in Iraq who is being looked after by the American soldiers. I put up all these images just to show you things that interest me. I like the picture of the lion as it looks like it is the first time he has seen snow. Also the text under the puppy says : “Being on puppy patrol is hard work and every young pooch needs to take a break..grabbing 40 winks under a rifle and army hat in Baquba, Iraq. During their time in the country, so many American soldiers have bonded with stray dogs that a new rescue drive such as Operation Baghdad Pups have sprung up to help them take their four legged friends back to the United States. A case of puppy power”. Cool.

These trucks are part of our road signs exercise. we had to design three images relating to life and death situations on the road. We had  to visually warn vehicle users of the hazards of passing out on the wrong side.

Today we played around with the pen and brush tools. We used our drawings from the ‘Me, Myself & I’ exercise to put into practice what we’d learnt. It was really excellent to start to really understand just how much photoshop can do wahoooo!!!
