Sisters - Facial touch-up


The strongest technical aspect of my work is giving the face of my sister in the first picture the "California Glow". Rather than her face being the normal color that it always is and has been, it has this yellowish undertone that is shining through and makes her skin look healthier and kind of gives it the flawless skin" effect. The technical aspect of my work that can be improved on is the way the makeup looks on my second sister's eyelids. It doesn't look like it belongs there, but I could always try a different blending tool next time to make it seem like it was on her eyelids the entire time - sen before the photoshopping took place.

The easiest part of this art project was making the freckles disappear with the use of the healing brush. This was the easiest aspect for me because it didn't take me longer than roughly ten minutes on each face to rid them of their freckles that are scattered around their face. The most difficult part of this art project was painting the entire face and making sure the color didn't make it look extremely fake. This was the most difficult aspect of the art project because trying to find the right color and opacity to ensure the reality of the face stays in-tack.

I demonstrated the objection in this art activity because I used the different tools to make the skin of their faces have the flawless look along with the healthy glow and I gave them a makeover with different shades of eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick. I also made the teeth whiter when they were visible along with sharpening their jaw lines and making some facial feature more prominent than others in both of their pictures. If I could do this art activity again, I would change the color of the eyeshadow, blush and makeup to create a different look. I'd also maybe change the color of their hair completely and maybe make the picture have a more drastic change than the changes I have made in the pictures above.

  1. Such fun to work on someone you love. I like how you chose different styles of photo retouching for each of your sisters. Are those choices a reflection of their personalities?
