Week 8 Light and Color Adjustments

For this photo I used the Select by Color tool on her eyes and then filled in the color, I used the same selection tool for the green edges but used the paint brush and for the blue I used the Fuzzy selection and then the paint brush. I then changed the brightness and contrast.

For the following pictures I used the Color Selection Toll to select all the black in the image and then used the Bucket Fill tool change the color. For the third image, I also used the Color balance selection. For the last photo of Abby, I filled it in with the Bucket Fill tool and then I used the blur tool. 

   




For Damien and Cheyenne, I used a small paint brush and lowered the opacity and changed the color Cheyenne's hair. I then changed  the color of the top of her dress the same way, in addition to using the blur tool. For the bottom of her dress in the first photo I used the same method as I did with her hair only with the blur tool. In the second photo us I used the paint brush with full opacity in addition to a second layer with gradient tool, I also used the pencil to create the "pleats" and the blend tool. 




For this photo I used the color select tool and the bucket fill tool to change the color of the flame. 

For the next two photos I used the scissor tool to select our hands, then the fill tool. Then I used the blur tool and Contrast and Brightness.

  1. I really like your pictures! I am wondering did you use the GIMP program... do you find it easy to use?? I love how you used the scissor tool to cut out the heart and re use it!

    1. I did in fact use GIMP and I do find it relatively easy to use. It is very similar to using photoshop.
