Photoshop.

This is an example of photoshop being used for a before and after of how they have changed the colours and sharpness of her features and the background the figure is situated in.

Photoshop is not only used for editing the style on a photo it can also be used to clear up someones complexion of completely change the shape of a persons body this is called 'airbrushing' which is used to almost mask the person underneath.

This is an example of how photographers photoshop bodies, In my opinion this is sometimes sort of warped, because these celebrities don't look any worse in the majority of there original images. You can see where they have 'trimmed' in her waist as well as airbrushing her skin to give an even and more smooth tone.

Photoshop can be used to edit images for example correcting colors, adding text to image, reducing size and enlarging images. Many Companies now use this digital technology to clean up images of models in magazines this method of photo editing is called airbrushing. It clear the model or person in the image of imperfections and can even alter there figure. Photoshop can also be used to create logo's for company’s and other design manufacturers it can now even be used to work with 3D content.

Rainbow Paperclips.

This is my final edit of this drawing. I also have some other photos I'll be scanning in and editing which will then be able to view at your leisure. I did this as a sort of collage I used double sided tape to attached the paperclips in this style to fit for the vest. I then used fine liner to fill in the pockets and headband.

I edited this on photoshop by altering the levels of the shades and colours so it cleared the uneven background. And then I also altered the hue on the paperclips to produce a deeper and richer tone. I can see this being used for a trendy stationers, because of the stylised choice.

Once again inspired.

For this drawing I used the paintbrush option on photoshop to colour in the lines of her hair. I wanted a contrasting shade and this is one of my favourite tones when I am doing hair as it is vivid without being over powering. I think fr these two edits I have kept the mood still remotely innocent and feminine but with a vintage twist, for examples the tones and hues of the vest and the old newspaper clipping for the pockets and hairband.

These are my other drawing in ink inspired by Natalie Hugh's original drawing. I also used the traditional technique of cutting out and replacing the white paper with either patterned fabric or as I used here wrapping paper and newspaper.

This is just my original cut out image which was all done by hand I then scanning it into photoshop and cleaned up the image adjusting the colour levels to make to background whiter. While changing the levels I also edited the flowers to produce a much richer shade on the pinks, purples and greens in the paper and Then I washed out the yellow slightly to make the Flowers more prominent.

Inspired.

These drawing were inspired by The fashion illustrator Natalie Hugh's, unfortunately there is number of people with this name. So google in fact showed me a number of Natalie's who were creative in one form or another, all wonderful I promise but the original image in a way portrays a mood of innocence and simplicity because the image is small on detail, Natalie just originally used ink and then photoshopped a matching pattern on the background and shirt which then made the "prada headband" stand out.

For my own interpretations of her image, I have made them much more busy with a number of patterns using traditional as well as digital techniques. These are my first interpretations of this chosen image I also have paper cut out versions and a paperclip collage.

These Photo's Have been created by using collage of ripped strips of magazine cuttings and silver card for the pockets and headband. I scored the silver card to add detail to the silver headband. For my bottom image I just cleared up the image and rotated it 180 degrees. As well as clearing up the image I also photoshopped her hair, to produce the psychedelic eye entrancing surface pattern.

The very top image I have edited the headband and pockets with a detailed pattern. I did struggle to begin with on managing to get a neat edge around the shapes and pieces i wanted to fill. But after using parts of this unit i feel i have improved my photoshop skills and would like to use it more in the future to make my use of it stronger. I feel i have changed the mood for this image from something sweet and maybe innocent to something much more edgy and possibly controversial and I could see one of these images being used for adverts for websites such as the make up brand eyeko or even for a independent clothing company.

The Staircase.

I think this is one of my favourite photographs that I took while I was away on the college trip to Antwerp. The staircase leads to the front for of a original 1930s home, there is a area in Antwerp which is full of all these AMAZING and detailed houses. I edited this photo to make it more grainy and almost haunted I also leveled out the black and white to make sure the details in the doors and rails under the eave of the porch. I could quite possibly see the swirls and interlocked patterns being woven into a garment either by embroidery or line printing.

So do you think the edited image is better? I would love to know what all you budding photographers think.

Pebble and Wood.

This image was taken while I was in Suffolk over the summer. What original drew me to photographing it was them multitude of colours in the pebbles as well as the structure of the salt water weathered wood slowly sinking into the unforgiving shores. And the effect I achieved on photoshop is also really good I think it looks almost futuristic and I would also like to develop this into a pattern for an item of clothing.

Would any of your fancy wearing the patterns my edited photograph's have created?

Fallen leaves, broken dreams.

These two images are another of my photoshop attempts but I actually think this worked out really well, I'm super happy with them. I feel I am just about getting the hang of all this photoshop business and may have to do a bit more of it, I'm only doing the simpler stuff mind!

I may of posted the original photograph on here before because I took it while I was in my Granny's orchard at half term. I think I'm going to try and use the edited image as a pattern for fabric on a design or something because hopefully that would look pretty cool.

Sorry this is such a short post! I promise a outfit post for this weekend!

The Golden Corn.

Good afternoon my lovely followers I apologise for not posting for well over a week! Thing have just caught up with me and I also had a horrid, horrid ( yes two horrid's it was that bad) sickness bug which knocked me out for the weekend when i was planning to post then. But i am back now not feeling fully well but much better than before.

These are edits of the original image which took last summer while i was on holiday in Suffolk. I photoshopped this picture because i am currently doing a brief which is focused on photo editing as well as editing pictures i have drawn myself. At the moment i am taking it as a interesting learning curve as I've known how to basically use photoshop (or other software like it) but not how to so intricately edit each photograph or almost re draw each piece using layers and transparency settings. I did take and alter more than just this image So i will post some more up over the next few days! There is also another outfit post coming up soon.

I hope you've all had okay weekends, anyone have there Christmas tree up yet?
