For the cover of the November 15, 2021 issue of the UTD Mercury, I cut this figure out from an action shot and added stylized drop shadows to make her stand out.
In order to include this piece in the photo spread for the March 7, 2022 issue of the UTD Mercury, I used Photoshop's perspective crop tool and made some other small adjustments to get an accurate head-on view of the canvas.
To create a better contrasting negative space for this article's headline, I cut around the figure and the right side of the flower stem to replace the solid grey sky with a gradient to white.
I created this mockup advertisement for a project aimed to spread awareness of and activism for homeless people. To create it, I cut the bus and both men from separate photos and placed them into the photo of the bus stop, then edited the left half of the image to resemble a dark night with only the harsh light from the bus stop illuminating the sleeping man.
I took this photo to use as a reference for an art piece, but the very complicated background made it difficult to work from, so I cut around the subjects and lightened the background to make them easier to see.
