For this project I had to create a surreal self portrait that tells a story. I primarily worked in Adobe Photoshop, masking and editing photos collected from my personal pictures as well as a photoshoot. 

I wanted to tell viewers a bit about my life using three versions of myself. These versions represent the troubles of my past, the present, and the hopes for my future. I started by having a photoshoot to get the three images of me in a similar seated position. I then brought all the photos in Adobe Photoshop and masked out the pieces I wanted to use. The next step was adding the bench, grass, and planet in the background. I added several photos at different levels of opacity and after the main components were added I adjusted color to level out the lights and darks.
