Warhol ProjectNow that you've learned how to precisely add color to a black and white image, let's apply that knowledge in a fun and personal setting. In this project, you are going to paint several renditions of a picture of yourself and arrange it in a grid. A famous artist that used this technique to develop pop art advertising is Andy Warhol. We are going to mimic this technique to create an original, personal piece of art.
First you will use the on-board camera of the Apple iMac to take your picture. Be creative with your pose so your project will be appealing and interesting! You will apply a filter inside Photoshop to make it look like a black and white sketch, then use your selection and coloring techniques to create the Warhol effect. You want to have a minimum of 3 different colors per box. Remember to use bright colors! As you work, save your project as a .psd and name it lastname + first initial + warhol.psd. When you are finished, save it again as a JPEG with the same name (ex: pettywwarhol.jpg) Submit the .JPG file using the form below. Don't forget to review the rubric to make sure you are meeting all of the project requirements!
