project 2 reflection-Andy Warhol

            Andy Warhol, an American artist who was a leading figure in the visual art movement known as pop art.His works explore the relationship between artistic expression, celebrity culture, and advertisement that flourished by the 1960s. After a successful career as a commercial illustrator, Warhol became a renowned and sometimes controversial artist.

              I wouldn't buy his artwork because first of all,I don't have that much money to buy and the second reason is I m not interested in "pop" art .It doesn't remind me anything because I've never seen any artwork with mix of different tone of colors.It's pleasant and also important to learn about Andy Warhol, and his art working also could do art work like him even it's with computer photoshop application. Critics criticize the art work in popular culture.It's better if someone has informed opinion about something,that's the reason we call that kind of people critics.When the critics criticize art working,any book,music and etc...their knowledge about it they know the details how is it works but if someone criticize anything they might'nt  have any knowledge about it and, they don't know the details,how is it works so their criticize would be personal criticize.Evey one have different taste and bias,its depends personal intrest.Some people might like rock music, pop music or,  interested in sports and some of them music.  People think different my truth might be someones erroneous.Warhol's portraits was more likely looking same thing in different angles,colors,taste and bias.He used different colors in one portrait and different tone of colors inside of those colors which is makes more lithochromatic the portraits.It's depend on people if the portraits are important if the person cares and interested in art of course it is but if the person doesn't care about it its not,for the portraits re important because I like and respect art.I think every portrait have meaning.There were a lot of artists in the past,some of them just loved it and some of them painted for money.I feel pleasant about making warhol portrait of my self because first of all I learned a new technique on photoshop application and second reason is even I cannot draw like him I could make it like him.


                    When we started to the project first some of us took picture of their self and I choose a picture of my self and then first i placed it on adobe photoshop cs6 after that I used quick selection tool to separate my self from the picture,after I separate my self from the picture I went to images and desaturate the the picture so automatically it turned into black and white then again I went to images/adjustment and brightness/contrast to edit how bright was it..After that I went to filter and opened filter gallery and choose cutout from the artistic,so the picture had became some more blurred.After that I opened new background and drug the picture to the new background this part was the most hardest part for me because I had different pictures from other with width and heigh so I had to make a compatible background with my picture.Couple time I erase what I've done and re-do it anyway I counted and found best width and height for my picture and druged it to the new background I re-sized the picture and duplicate 3 time more,so i had 4 of them.I opened new folder for them and i re-named them as a frame 1-2-3-4.After that I created color background for each of them with frame tool layer.After that I painted with different colors the background.In the end part I went to select and I selected load selection to select picture when i select the  picture I grabbed the paint bucket tool,before i paint them i opened new background for each of them and then I choose what color i wanted to and i painted them .
