David Cole



This shows his photo manipulation in a natural art media style. His digital painting has a very contemporary feel . Using these young girls in this piece hes showing there fashion in today's modern culture. He changes the the whole feel to the artwork using brush techniques and highlights that brings the artwork to life. This gives the piece a more controlled relaxed tone.
He minimises key areas and exsenchuates others using airbrush techniques to give the artwork a sense of professionalism.

Here he is promoting a brand for a particular company using artistic figures almost as models. The retoucher has added these elements and has taken out areas of the piece which he thought congested the feel to the advert.

Here are are images illustrating where i could venture in my work. Taking a texured image and adapting it into a retouched main figures and background.

Ethan Izzarelli


From bringing these original pictures together he was able to construct an image which has been manipulated into the one piece. He has altered most things here and has toned down the initial colour saturation. Brought out imperfections into the key figures and the hockey puck to all compliment the lighting. All of these elements have combined to create a finished piece.

He shows a progressive thought process, adapting new features using new layers of images and embedding them into the original retouched image. This creates the scene from a bland view of a skyline into a finished piece.
He also adds slight but affective changes o the background, especially the drift of the palm trees which brings intensity and motion to the relative objects in view.
He starts with the original image then he alters around the centred atmospheric feel which this image omits to the other additional images.
The overall visual effects i hope to recreate for the next stage in my development to produce my own digital artwork.

Isley Brothers- CD cover




This is another CD cover which ive experimented on to illustrate my thoughts further. I have again taken a figure out of the original image and changed the appearance of the photograph using airbrush techniques. Also creating a solo artist who was before in a group from altering words and imbeded them into the image.

Timbaland -CD cover



In this experiment i have taken the music artists 'Timbaland' out of the original. My intentions from doing this was to see whether i was able to take a figure out of the image to create my own background using the resources which are found in the picture. As well as this I've airbrushed certain areas aswell as adjust the lighting in the piece to emphasise the shadow image.
