 * Project Guidelines (click here for tutorial):**

1. Begin with a photo of yourself, and "posterize" it to create a 1 color image.

2. Layer textures and patterns to create an interesting background.

3. Incorporate a graphic element.

4. Adjust color, blend modes, and transparencies to create a brand new image that demonstrates your skill and understanding of design. Your design should show: -a balanced composition -a unified color scheme -effective use of layers and transparencies -skilled combination of graphic elements -creativity!
