BW to color

Artist Statement 
        On this assignment, I had to take a picture of myself and color the background with different colors. I don't have pictures of myself, meaning I had to get creative and look around where I could take a picture with a good background. I found a spot beside the bride on the riverwalk which I really liked and took the picture. Then I used photoshop to edit the picture and make it different colors. 
    
        I chose the colors that I wanted for each time that I had to do it and started playing with the pictures trying to find which colors looked best. I colored the bridge, water, rail, grass, hat, shirt, and sky. When I finished coloring everything I lowered the opacity of the colors to make the picture look better. Overall I think I did well.

    Hi Orlando, I really like how your project came out. Something that stands out is how consistent you were with placing the same shade on both your hat and t-shirt. One think I would adjust next time is how precise your edges are.

    Orlando, I like how you chose really bright colors for each of your photos. It's cool how you matched the colors of your shirt and hat in each one. Good job

 Orlando Mena Autoscopy Artist Statement        In this venture, I began by checking out a portion of the photos that the educator introduced as thoughts for the task and I tracked down an extremely dim picture on an oceanside with a skull. I truly enjoyed the photograph, I began to play with it until I tracked down how to combine my face with the skull for it to look great. I opened my mouth to the image of myself for me to look better once the photos were blended. I grew up adoring the motion pictures from Pirate of the Caribbean, so when I saw this photograph I realized I could assemble something around it.       When I wrapped up consolidating my face with the skull which was essentially the troublesome aspect I proceeded to play with the haziness of the photos for it to look dull and better. Then, at that point, I began searching for more photographs to add, and I observed a skeleton sitting just as a skeleton banner. I needed to make both of these photographs a piece of my ventur

Business card

Orlando Mena  Mission Statement    For this task, we needed to make three distinct business cards. As somebody that is a business venture significant I truly appreciated making this project. In the first business card, I attempted to do my own variant of what the teacher introduced us to. I began playing with the pencil device tool and did a few waves to make a cool foundation for my logo. I am truly delighted with how my first business card ended up.    At first, I had my questions regarding what I needed for the following two business cards. I began playing with the foundations and with various shapes and everything looked great together and that was the manner by which the second business card was made. I truly loved the delightful way it ended up and it was without anybody's assistance. For the last business card, I think of it as my top pick. I truly like the shadings that I added and the way everything looks. Generally, I truly liked my business cards and I truly delighted in
