Photoshop Quilt Pattern

This was the first assignment I did with Photoshop. Once I got over my fright I enjoyed all the cool things Photoshop could do. For this assignment I had to take pictures and manipulate them so they were unrecognizable. I then applied them to a quilt pattern. Some of the pictures I chose to manipulate were from my favorite architect, Frank Lloyd Wright. I chose to use a picture from Falling Water and a design of one of his rugs. I used one of Kandinsky's works in addition to two flower paintings by Georgia O'Keeffe. I also manipulated a picture of my dream car-a red mini cooper. My last three pictures are of the mountains and of my favorite place-the beach!

Looking back on this assignment I think it turned out well and allowed me to get introduced to Photoshop. The overall design is a bit chaotic so next time I might try to unify the colors more but overall it turned out well and I enjoyed manipulating the images!
