This image has been the hardest one to create this semester. I spent lots of time trying to edit the photos to perfection, and yet the outcome was was still quite awful in my opinion. I had to restart and recreate my image several times because of errors that I would make while trying to cut out large pieces of each layer. Looking at my final product with a white background shows the small mistakes and misses that I have on my image that I couldn’t see on my image when I was creating it on Pixlr. I wish that Pixlr would have given me a better look at the small details that I should be able to see and make the image neater but the black background kept me from seeing all of the small blemishes. My biggest regret about this assignment is that young me is not close enough to old me and I’m just missing an arm. Although it was difficult to create, the assignment was really cool for me to see how much I’ve changed and the assignment made me feel old, although that’s not necessarily true. Maybe it’s because it seems like ages ago that I was that young.
