Revision of Self Portrait

This step-by-step process will explain and show exactly how I revised my Self Portrait image.

1. Import Alamo image.

2. Cut and Crop a portion of the Alamo Image to use as the flooring.

3. Next using the pen tool, create paths around the entire image then control right click, select stroke path, select brush and the color black. This will give you a brush outline of the entire image.

4. Use the eyedropper tool to sample colors within the original photo and then using the brush tool paint them in to the areas they are located in.

5. Import 2nd image.

6. Import original Self-portrait image for editing. Next show the project’s grid, then navigate to the preferences section and select Guides, grids & Slices. Here you will choose the option style: Lines and the second option change your Gridline to pixels. Now select your Gridline preference and subdivision preference. Make a copy of the image and then open your polygonal lasso tool and uncheck Anti-alias. Now using the polygonal tool create the shapes you want within the gridlines and then navigate to filter>blur>average to give a flat polygonal color effect. Crop the left side of the new polygonal image, using the Rectangular marquee tool. Now using the free transform option use the horizontal double arrow and drag it across the image to create a completely new image.

7. Apply a photo filter to the entire canvas.

8. Using the quick selection tool copy a portion of another image and copy +paste it to the shirt. Finally apply a color balance to the shirt to give it a new color.
