Color and Texture/Pattern Design- Pop Art

 Open a Picture from the web of a well known popular person from popular culture.


First we will play with the image as a monochromatic image-
* Image Adjust Black & White


* Play with the colors until your foreground sets apart from your background by its value differences ( I have made the values in the background much lighter).


* Use Image adjust to darken the person lighten background more if possible.


* Using Smudge tool, paint brush or eraser, eliminate background around individual. Save, then Export – Save for Web and Upload to Blog.
3. Using Gradient Map to change colors.

Using Image Adjust to Gradient Map –Use the tool in the top corner to choose different gradients.  There are a variety of menus of Gradient Maps.  This would be analogous Color scheme.

Adjusting the map is possible by going to edit and changing the amount and the type.   This is the same image in normal 50%.

This is with linear light.  As you see in is no longer analogous but Monochromatic.




 Save and upload five different gradient map images to your blog and name each color scheme.

4.  Posterizing image is a good way to make it have a Pop Art Look. Save this image.

5. Threshold will take this one step further to Back White Only.  Save this as well

6. Color Balance will then allow you to take either image and adjust one color.


Save your image.  Upload two to your blog.
7.  Last Using Image Adjust Hue Saturation change this image 4 different ways and save for your blog.


Assignment  Using Image/Images of your choice make a Pop Art Picture in the style of Andy Warhol.
