Some more Inspiration

Here are two more images that have given me some more direction in my self portrait project. In class we have also been learning some more skill in photoshop and im really starting to love that program. We did an exercises in class where we took an image of a close up shot of a models face who was wearing bright pink lipstick and edited it. First we changed the image to a grey scale and then layered it over top of the original. Using the eraser tool we lightly erased the lips of the grey scale model so that the pink could come through. The result was a striking black and white image of a model but the lips were pink. I think I may be able to use that skill in my own project later on.
