For the Id tutorial, we leant how to place images, conform text and make our future business cards and final portfolio look great!

For the Ps Tutorial, we were using different color layers on top of a black and white photo. To do this we used a lower opacity on a brush to make each object on the girl look a different color. Overall this helped me understand what kind of colors and techniques I was going to use on my own portrait.

For this Pear tutorial, we introduced the mesh tool and how it will aid us in our final Ai project of the canvas project. Using the shading tool has taught me that it's essential to make sure all colors are evenly haded to make it look more real.

Here are the DreamWeaver, Adobe tutorials.  These two tutorials, which guided me through how to code, is what helped me create the final canvas project.

For this extra Credit option, I combined two of my favorite things in life, chocolate and basketball. For the basketball and hoop, I traced these off an example image. For the chocolate and strawberries, they were drawn on Illustrator. This is made to look like a chocolate fountain machine, instead using the hoop as the fountain and basketball as the stand. The Strawberries at the end were extra detail which made it easier for the viewer to understand. This project took a couple of hours and was a great way to finish the semester.

My Final Portfolio I am very proud of! Hopefully you enjoy this blog as much as I have enjoyed making it! :)
