Look, Ma!  I'm Pop Art!

Uploaded: June 26, 2006

Description

Paying homage to Warhol is nothing new, but it never ceases to be fun! The major things I've done to the pics are obvious. Other than that, I painted fuller lips on myself (wishful thinking), eliminated some stray hairs flying into the background, and made the background a solid color without shadows, as it is originally my bright blue shower curtain. I also painted in my eyebrow a little, and washed out my face to get rid of some lines. All this on iphoto and Adobe Image Ready.

Very nice. I remember looking at a tutorial online on how to do this in photoshop, but I never got around to trying it. Your Andy Warhol turned out well.

Thanks, Sam! I'd never thought of doing this sort of thing before, but after discovering and playing with the hues and all the other little tools in Image Ready, it popped into my head. And it's very fun; you should definitely give it a try. #2975770
