Step 3
Now, we will proceed to making the wooden floor to where the woman’s head is floating on. To start, open the stock image: “Old wood texture” by kovik. Once open, activate the Move tool (V) and drag it to our canvas. Put this layer above the “sky” layer and rename it to “floor”.To rename a layer, simply double-click on the words: “layer 1” (you can find that on the layer window) to prompt a text box to appear.

Step 4
Now, we would want this floor to appear flat and not like a wall, to do that, we would need the help of the Transform tool. Activate the Transform tool (Ctrl/Cmd + T) and right click on the canvas to bring out the contextual menu. Once it is up, click on Perspective.
Step 5 Now, let’s create a selection area around the head of this woman.Next, to make the “insides” look even more realistic, we would need to fix the lighting on it. Create a new layer (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + N) and then name it “darken Clone Stamped Area”, once done, right click on this newly created layer and choose “Create Clipping Mask” from the contextual menu. Make sure to put this layer above the “Clone Stamped Area” layer.

Expressing a photograph
photograph by Steve McCurry.
To begin with,the child on the left looks so terrified. He is unsure what will the people inside the car will react either negatively or positively. Not only that, the fact that he knew the person in the car are totally strangers which makes him more nervous. By the look of his eyes, he is very scared and his other hand is tightly hugging the girl. As for the child on the right, i personally thought that was the mother but it couldn't be because by the look at her face she is way to young. Probably that is her sister wondering around for help. Her saree which is very bright red showed that she is a strong and confident girl.Brave enough to come close to stranger begging for help. Her left hand that she placed at the window screen showed that she needed help or some kind of hope from others. By the look at her face, that's not a dissapointed face rather just a sweet smile.
Art movement
To begin with, art is not just a painting but, full of hidden messages behind every each picture.However, there are many different kinds of art that I had learnt.
TYPES OF ART
Abstract art
- Abstract artists felt that paintings did not have to show only things that were recognizable. In their paintings they did not try to show people, animals, or places exactly as they appeared in the real world. They mainly used color and shape in their paintings to show emotions. Some Abstract art is also called Non-objective art. In non-objective art, you do not see specific objects. It is not painted to look like something specific.
Art deco
- emerged after World War I. In fact, the deprivations of the Great War years gave way to a whole new opulence and extravagance that defined the Jazz Age and the Art Deco aesthetic.
Art nouveau
- aimed at modernizing design, seeking to escape the eclectic historical styles that had previously been popular. Artists drew inspiration from both organic and geometric forms, evolving elegant designs that united flowing, natural forms with more angular contours.

- the most important characteristics is that it tried to eliminate the distinction between fine art and craft, between fine and decorative art
Constructivism
- refers to the optimistic, non-representational relief construction, sculpture, kinetics and painting. The artists did not believe in abstract ideas, rather they tried to link art with concrete and tangible ideas
- Cubism is modern art made up mostly of paintings. The paintings are not supposed to look real The artist uses geometric shapes to show what he is trying to paint. Early cubists used mainly grays, browns, greens, and yellows. After 1914, Cubists started to use brighter colors. Cubism was the beginning of the Abstract and Non-objective art styles.
- its output was wildly diverse, ranging from performance art to poetry, photography, sculpture, painting and collage
Expressionism
- the artist tries to express certain feelings about some thing were more concerned with having their paintings express a feeling than in making the painting look exactly like what they were painting.
Futurism
- The Futurists were fascinated by the problems of representing modern experience, and strived to have their paintings evoke all kinds of sensations - and not merely those visible to the eye. At its best, Futurist art brings to mind the noise, heat and even the smell of the metropolis.
Graffiti
- Graffiti is the plural form of the Italian word grafficar. grafficar signifies drawings, markings, patterns,scribbles, or messages that are painted,or carved on a wall.It also signifies "to scratch" in reference to different wall writings ranging from cavepaintings",bathroom scribbles, or any message that is scratched on walls markings such as slogans, slurs or political statements.
favourite colour
Color is the most powerful elements in life. It has tremendous expressive qualities which rises the crucial to effective composition in design and fine arts. The word color is general term which applies to the whole subject can be red, orange, yellow, green, violet, black, white and all possible combinations. Other than that, Hue is the correct word to use to refer Hue is the correct
word to use to refer to just the pure spectrum colors. Any given color can be
described in terms of its value and hue. In addition the various physical
phenomena and psychological effects combine to affect our perceptions
of a color.

Of
all the colors in the world,red is my favorite color. It is
because red is the color of blood and fire which has a strong symbolism throughout
my life and vitality.It helps me to enhance my confidence yet as a sense of
protection from my fears and anxiety which brings focus to the essence of
living the emphasis on survival. However,It can be very expressively
intense color since i felt the energy, desire, supremacy, excitement and also
love. Unfortunately, many people believe that it has a drawback as an aggressiveness color
which simply defines antagonism, confrontation and even casualty. Personally, i
don't care on other perceptions because different people have different way of
analyzing towards anything. To sum up, red will always be my favorite color
because it makes me feel like I’m on top of the world.
