The World Would Be A Better Place If...

PTSA, The World Would Be a Better Place If ... Competition

     My work is based off on how the world would be a better place if we recycled and conserved energy. I made this with the intention of showing people how beautiful the world would be without all the trash and smoggy air around. In some places, I know that it's clear and clean. Most places, however, aren't as sanitary and I know that everyone would appreciate a little freshness in their life. Not to mention, if people started realizing that if they worked together to clean the world then it would greatly decrease the dangers of global warming. To summarize, this piece of work was made to encourage people to make the world a better environment to live in. 

     I created my work with a software called Adobe Photoshop. The first thing I did was create my template, adjusting the size for it. Once getting into the software, then I start thinking of ideas. I wanted to create an idea to encourage people to recycle and conserve their energy, so I started my work with a clear sky, using different brushes to make it seem cloudy and refreshing. I then added in some pictures from the internet, and erased the background. I drew my person, and used the gradient skills from the tutorial. I used the text, and added in some effects. I added in some finished touches by exploring the other settings and effects, and finished. 

     The skills I used from the tutorial were mainly gradient ideas and skills. They helped my with the hair and also the shading or my person. The tutorial that inspired me to apply the hair's gradient and shadowing can be found here.
