In this self-portrait the tools and techniques I used in Photoshop is Magic Wand Tool Gradient Tool and Brightness and Contract Tool. I find out that the most interesting tool to use is the Gradient Tool, because I can change my portrait to many different color as I want to. If I were given the opportunity to start over again I will pick another image because in this image I wear a white swather and the background is also white too so when I use the Gradient Tool the background and my body combined together. It looks like my body is disappear.
In this digital collage I used all image that remain me of home. The image of the Chinese New Year background I appropriate from "Google" and also the Chinese butterfly flag I appropriate from "Google" too. The image of my sister and me sat on a chair, the Chinese money and Chinese snake are all my personal images. The tool I used to combine the appropriated and personal image is the Layer Mask tool, Quick Selection tool, Lasso tool and Move tool. I depict the theme of home by use my favorite snake from my childhood and the traditional Chinese New Year background. Viewer might perceive the theme of home by saw a picture me with my family member. If I were given the opportunity to start my collage over again will I add more of my personal image and add more family member image.
