Skylar's Butterfly

First I made one layer with a square turned it purple, made a second layer, turned that blue, made a third and turned it turquoise. Then I mad three stems with a green pencil, and added stars at the top. To make my stars I selected the star option moved the points around and changed the colors. I pressed ctrl+alt to multiply the stars and put about 10 on each stem. I repeated this again except this time I put them else where and changed the size with the skew tool. I did the same exact thing to make the sun except I made the stroke thicker and yellow. to make the butterfly I made two circles, moved the points around and put an outer bevel on it. Next I added another circle to the middle with the same effects. Then I put alien fluid slaptters in the corners, doughnuts in the middle, and top and bottom corners. Next I placed Two black swirls at the top to represent the antenna. Each one of these separate objects had there own layer.

Skylar's Spot Colors

In order to make this image look the way it looks I had to do the following. I saved this picture with all the colors off google on to my file, then I opened them on FireWorks. I used my polygon lasso tool to outline the middle pink flower. I pressed Ctrl+Shift+I(selects the outside) and went to command, then creative, then sepia tones.

For this project, we were told to make one landscape picture. I chose one of  the most beautiful ones I could find. In order to make this I had to used both my lasso tool to make one big circle glob around my water. Next I pressed Ctrl+Shift+I to select whats around my circle rather than whats inside. I changed my selected area to a sepia tone. Once I was done with that I grabbed  my wand tool to select every area other than the blue water then changing them to sepia tone. Now that's how I used my tools to create this image.

This image was rather easy but beautiful to make. First I placed the original on my canvas, then used my lasso tool to select around pink book. Next I pressed Ctrl+Shift+I to select outside of the book and chose a sepia tone.Then I went in with the wand tool and selected all the colors other then pink and converted them to a sepia tone(which didn't make much of a difference).

 

In order to do this, I used the lasso tool to circle the tree, made the backround sepia tone. After that I Went in my tree with my wand tool and try to select everything but the leaves and change it to a sepia color.

Skylar Zelenko's Alphabet/Font

Zelenko Font

In order to make this font, I made a canvas 8"x10" with a resolution of 200. I made 26 layers and named one by one Aa, Bb, Cc, Ect. My starting font was "Aharoni" until I changed each of the letters to more of a definition font. I selected my "Skew Tool(Q)" and moved around my points to make it the way it looks. In able to make each uppercase letter with its lower case letter I pressed "Ctrl+G". For my stroke I selected "Viscous Alien Paint" and put a inner bevelment on each letter. I sized each letter to fit my canvas and typed the name of my font at the bottom with my font. Zelenko.

Skylar Zelenko's Cornucopia

In order to make my cornucopia I selected a 1000x1000 canvas with the resolution set to 200. Then I set my background to a pumpkin orange. If you look in my cornucopia there are various fruits and vegetable like corn, pumpkin, squash, grapes, apples, tomatoes, sweet peas, potatoes, garlic, etc. For each one these items, I made a different layer and named each one by the contents. For example my first layer would be named basket, in which I would make my basket. If you notice each one of my vegetables and fruits have all started off with a circle, other then the leaves. In order to do this I had to move around the different points with my white arrow to adjust the item to the appropriate shape. To make mutiple fruits and vegetables, I pressed Ctrl+Alt while holding them, and it duplicated the object. I changed the fill for each of these with the appropriate color, and used the pencil tool to makes stems. I also I added some textures and patteren, which you will see if you look closely at the corn or the tomato tops. To make my basket I added circles and made them get smaller behind each other. For my leaves I added stars, while moving around the points it began to look like a leave. I changed each of the leaves sizes and colors to give it fall spirit. Then I pressed Crtl+Alt once again to duplicate the leaves. I also added two text boxes one in the lower right corner and one in the top right corner. I chose a font to fit with my Thanksgiving theme. Thankyou for reading my blog!
