Warhol

Jb is taking a Photoshop class in school. Her assignment this weekend is to take a photo of herself, and use Photoshop to replicate her photo into a "painting" by a famous artist. She was assigned Andy Warhol.  I decided I wanted to play, too, so had her walk me through the various steps. It turns out this was a bit of a project as EACH layer must be mapped and recolored for each image. It took us pretty much ALL day! But I am super pleased with our results, and I had the greatest time having her teach me some new Photoshop techniques.

The original photograph

Andy Warhol's painting I was trying to copy.

This is the first image map I made. By image map, I mean there is an individual layer for the skin, hair, eyes, lips, shadows and background colors.

From here, I had to recolor each layer, multiple times. Here is my finished product. 

What ya think?
