Go Leafs Go

As the Toronto Maple Leafs finished second last in the league, and do not have a first round draft pick, a picture like this is necessary to boost the Leaf's fan-base. I first found the background picture. I found that it did not look epic enough, so i added a filter to create the textured effect and emphasize the Leafs' symbol and the words. I then went on google and found a picture of John Mitchell, and used the magnetic lasso tool to select him. I pasted him in the picture, on the left hand side. I looked at the picture and decided that it did not fit in well enough. I added some brightness him, and the blurred his edges slightly to blend him in a bit better. I then went online and found a picture of Phil Kessel, the undisputed best player on the Leafs. I once again used the rectangular marquee tool to select him, and then copied him and pasted him into the picture. I then used another filter to make him look more epic, and then blurred his edges to make it fit in more. And Voila, and picture that would make anyone respect the Leafs (at least for a moment)

Touchdown!!

Larry Fitzgerald, a wide receiver for the Arizona Cardinals, is one of the premier receivers in the NFL. As a fan, I decided to make this picture. I found a picture of Fitzgerald diving to get a touchdown. I cropped out his legs, to make a nice square. I then used the elliptical marquee tool to select Fitzgerald. I then inverted the selection, and set the background colour to the same colour of the jersey. By hitting delete, the edge gradient colour was made. I then used a filter to make the picture more drawing like, creating the final element of the picture.

Anger.... Shown in a variety of Colours

This picture captures the anger of one man by showing it multiple times and many different colours. To create this design, I used the rectangular marquee tool to select the part of the picture I wanted to use. I then set the selected area to be a brush preset. After doing this, I created a new blank canvas. I went to the brush tool, and in the preset brush styles, there was a style that was the selected area of my other picture. I then set the colour to be one I liked, and then just randomly stamped him all over the picture. I altered the size of the stamps to make an even greater effect
