For my self portrait collage I decided to represent the elements that reflect my life, such as music, my favorite places, sayings, religion, and where I’m from, in tattoo form. I’ve always thought that tattoos are essentially a collage of your life experiences, so I thought that it would be an interesting way to represent them. I decided to keep all of the “tattoos” black and white to represent my engineering way of thinking, and because I think they visually look better. For my background I decided to make a gradient to represent the sun and the water, because the photo was taken at my favorite beach. My biggest challenge was making them look realistic. To do so, I used a lot of shadowing, as well as distortion of the shapes and letters to look more natural on the different parts of the body. I used several images from the internet as well as a few different fonts in the lettering.<\/p>\n
