Visual Pun


I chose a picture of our previous president, George Bush. I made the pun "meat head" using his picture. I used a picture of meat for this pun. It was copied twice. On the first one I selected his eyes, nose, and mouth and created a mask. Few tweaks and it was done. I made it more transparent so that we can see his face. The second layer I chose the outside of his face, tweaked it and made it less transparent. That is how I got the desired effect of my visual pun.

Hot Head


My view of the doctor's office

I used several different images and layers to make this picture. I used some filters on the hands and the poster. On the hands I used hard light to make them look real and as if someone was really there. For the we come in peace poster I used the screen filter to remove black from the layer and it looks like its really on the wall.

Save the Polar Bears



Polar bears have no choice. Animals like them are becoming endangered. The fresh water I drank made me think of the inhibiters of the salty waters and glaciers. Polar bears have no choice, no habitat.

Bust A Move

















I took 4 break dancers performing their best moves. I found a nice background to suit their skills. I then picked the cannel with the most contrast from each picture. I then shaded the people in and made it so that they turned out black. It was easy to select them that way by pressing load channels as a selection. Then all I had to do was inverse the people's selection. I cut them out and pasted them on my background. I think it came out pretty well.
