Michelle_F_Metaphor_Idiom

This is the first idiom I illustrated - "You Crack Me Up".

I added a mask to the skin and another mask to all the other parts of the bodies--clothes, hair, etc. The masks are visually different, but taken from the same picture. The mask on the skin is more prominent.

The second idiom - "Rain Check"

I put the check into the puddle, then transformed it to make it look like it's laying down. I then added a mask to make the rain puddle look like it's over the check. I also used the smudge tool to bend the lines and writing on the check to make it look like it's affected by the ripples in the water, and then smudged the background of the puddle to make the ripples more prominent in the check.

Blog 3- New York Minute


To convey the phrase "New York minute" I found the picture of the 60 second stopwatch and hand and used a clipping mask to reveal the image of New York City below. I then played with the tint of the city image to lighten it as if it were behind glass. Then I used the select tool and paintbrush to add the reflections on the watch surface. Finally, I selected the image and set it against a background of an urban city street.

Kimberlie_B Blog Three: Air Heads




For this metaphor project I decided to use the term 'air head'.  I found pictures of vintage paper dolls, an old Polaroid of a balloon, a beach scene, and a paisley print.  I made the heads shine through the balloons using pixel masks and altering the density and opaqueness of the balloons.  I used the same method with the beach scene in order to have the illusion of a light paisley stamp.  Lastly I adjusted all of the layers by bringing the hue and saturation levels down to create an antique photo feeling.

Very cool it may not look like it yet but I am starting to understand the use of the computer.
