Changing Hair Color




In order to put color on the hair and to make it look like it was dyed, I went into quick mask mode and painted over the hair, giving it a lighter opacity and making it look realistic.

Modifying The Nose



As you can tell, I did a little touching up on the nose by liquefying it and using the Pucker tool. This was a very simple one step project.

Content Aware Practice

The content aware tool is probably my favorite tool in Photoshop. It makes your life so much easier when it comes to photo editing and needing to take out objects. It makes it less obvious that there were obstructions in the way of your picture.

Spot Healing Brush Practice

I was able to fix this girl's acne problem by using the spot healing brush. This brush is very easy to use, and takes no skill at all. You can fix any acne problem (on the computer) by using the spot healing brush. 

Clone Stamp Practice- Straight Leaning Tower of Pisa


I was able to make the leaning tower of Pisa straight, by simply using the clone stamp tool, and changing the slant of the clone. I changed it to 4 degrees to the right and it faces up straight perfectly. I also had to do some touching up on the people of the ground, but as you can see, it doesn't look like anything was wrong with the picture in the first place.

Clone Stamp- Old Trucks

This truck was cloned into a smaller truck by using the clone stamp. The clone stamp is a very easy tool to use, and I was able to transform it without any problems at all.

Grunge Portrait


This grunge portrait is a portrait of an old man, with literally many layer masks and blurs on it. I used about 7 layer masks, and even added a colored layer to it. The first picture is the original, and the second picture is the one that I edited.
