2nd Awareness Poster

      It was a lot of work to create two posters, but because of the comments on my sketches I thought it would be a fun idea to execute the man eating tree!  Only images that are not my own are the small fire in the background and the leaves on his head.  Sadly my leaf pictures did not transfer to my one drive.

Awareness Poster

      Although I did not get to stick with strictly my own photos, I feel that my awareness poster gets the point I wanted across.  I wanted to show the U.S. covered in a pile of trash, with a wishful flower sprouting from the middle.  As if it hoped, things can change, we can change.  The skull, on the other hand, is a reflection of what is to come from this horrible consumption if we do not decide to change.  The quote was taken from an environmental site that I found, EarthEcho International  I  #DYK?  Some Interesting Facts about the Environment.  
        I used tons of layers and three photos.  I created much of the poster using photoshop tools, such as gradient fill, layer adjustment, layer blendings, erasing, layering, text, and paintbrush, are some of them.
