Cartoon:
            I believe the strongest part of my cartoon is the different colors used. I believe this because the cartoon I did prior to my finished product is terrible and very plain. The line work could be improved but I am new to the program. I used mostly the pen tool, and the paint brush to fill in. I also used the burn tool to make the effects look better. The most difficult part of this art project was tracing the original photo in to the outline of a cartoon. The easiest part was matching the colors in the original photo using the color tool. I successfully was able to improve my project and learn to use the pen tool more effectively in Photoshop and Illustrator. I did do it again and it came out better so I believe the saying practice makes perfect is a legit thing, and I tried 9/10.

Phot collage:

            The strongest part of this project is the placement of the photo tabs, because it looks like a professional did it. Blending is one thing I need to focus on getting better in because you can tell apart different items in the photo. I used a lot of polygon lasso and copy and paste a lot. These tools cut and added specific pieces of the picture I didn’t need or needed to hide. The project was hard but once you get a hang of the tools being used the project become very easy. I successfully made the Polaroid and placed a background in the photo. If I could do this assignment again I would just add a more plain background, but I tried 10/10.
