Self Insertion


I chose to insert myself into a picture on a beach in a tropical place because my favorite place to go is the beach. I used the magnetic lasso tool to crop around my background. I then inserted myself into the picture. I adjusted the colors slightly only on my body to match the background and give it a "cooler" feel since the background consists of blue and green colors.

Rihanna Vector Illustration

I found this project to be very difficult and time consuming. Some of the objects were difficult to outline, especially the nose and the hair. The most difficult part for me was creating the shadows and highlights on the face and in her hair. Overall, I think my vector illustration is successful since it is obvious who is in the picture.

Final Logo


 My fictional company is a bakery called Claire's Cookie Jar. This bakery is designed specifically to bake and sell a wide variety of cookies that are popular in many different countries around the world. I chose to create my logo so that the viewer can easily tell what the company is. I created a half-bitten cookie in the shape of a "C", to begin the letters of "Claire's" and "Cookie." I used the colors of a chocolate chip cookie, which I thought most people would be able to recognize. The font that I chose is very playful rather than serious, to let my audience know that my bakery has a friendly environment.
