Subject: Photoshop Chapter 1

Imagine world with tons of colors like in the fantasyland...it was a spectacular scene, isn't it?
Maybe u wonder how photographers can create such a wonderful, attractive masterpeice in their photos. They use a little bit of imagination, and plenty of software workout. Doing these is not an easy task..


Adobe Photoshop is a power tool that can convert a dull looking image into a beautiful artwork. U can see the example at the right corner of my page. This is my brief intro about working in a digital art and graphic design workspace.Below is my artwork published in my college last semester..
