Assignment: Do the exercise, then add your own layer with custom effects.
This was very difficult for me. I think it's time to
put my trackball to rest and get a mouse :( My hand is
so cramped from trying to do all these little painting
details. I spent way too much time on this assignment,
but I got this idea in my head and I just couldn't stop.
I extracted Olivia from a picture using the magnetic
lasso. I copied a merged section of the lily picture
and from that merged section, I cut out part of a lily
with the magnetic lasso. I then moved the lily (wing)
to the picture of Liv and positioned it. Copied and
moved again, rotated, moved the layers around so the
wings were behind her. Flattened image, cut her out
with the negative magic wand...moved her into the lily
picture. Somewhere in that I resized her. I changed
the color of her outfit to a light green using the image
> adjust >replace color feature. She was wearing pink
and it didn't really match (is my OCD showing
through???).
