Spacescape


This assignment introduced the program Corel Painter.  We experimented with various brushes, effects, and filters in order to get more comfortable with the program and created a spacescape that used the rule of thirds and many different elements to create an appealing image.  We also learned about combining layers and using layer masks, creating text wraps, and anti-aliasing.  The hardest part for me was trying to take my face from the picture in different dimensions to wrap into the planet in a way that didn't stretch my face horizontally so much.  I eventually realised it was futile.
