Artist Refection:
In this assignment we had to merge two animals together, the two animals I chose was a duck and a giraffe. The strongest technical aspect in my project was the use of the clone stamp tool. This tool was used to add the duck texture over the giraffes skin. This was used to make my project look a lot more realistic. An aspect that could be improved on is the cutting out of the beak. I think I could make this better by spending more time on cutting this part out.
I think one thing that was easy about this project was lining up the ducks beak with the giraffes head. I did this by lining up the eyes and cutting out the beak and adjusting it until it looks like it was in the correct. One thing I found difficult about this project was the use of the clone stamp tool. I had to do the clone stamp tool many times and at first I didn't understand how to use the tool making it very difficult for me to use.
The objective of this art activity was to combine two animals and have features from each of the animals in the project. I think I demonstrated this part of the project by having the beak and the ducks fur on the giraffe. If I could do this activity again I would choose two different animals to base my project on. I would choose a shark and an eagle, That would be a very interesting combination.
