Tattoo Artist Assignment #4

Artist Reflection:
              The next assignment was the tattoo artist assignment. In this assignment we had to follow strict directions from a handout given to us. There were several steps you needed to follow word for word. The strongest technical aspect of my work is the tattoo itself. I had to use the warp tool and change the opacity to create the illusion that my tattoo is real. A technical aspect of my work that can be improved is the realism of the tattoo. At the moment, the tattoo looks very photoshopped and doesn't quite appear that its on the wrist.
               This art activity was both easy and difficult in different ways. This activity was easy because all of the steps on how to complete the assignment were already laid out for you in the directions. The most difficult part of this activity was editing the hand to make the tattoo look more realistic. We had to edit the hand so the tattoo would appear to be on the wrist more.
               The objective of this activity was to create the appearance of a tattoo using the warp tool. I demonstrated this objective by creating a tattoo on the wrist. I attempted to make the tattoo look more realistic by using the warp tool to wrap around the wrist. If I could do this art activity again, I would attempt to warp the tattoo even more to wrap the tattoo around the wrist more. In conclusion, in this assignment I created a tattoo using the warp tool and made it look realistic to the best of my ability.
