Lesson in presentation. Thinking about Water-Media last spring and teaching it again this coming fall. I was rushed and when I looked back at my documentation, I realized it was really poor. Here is Michelle's brilliant collage work for the "Land/Bend, Slice, Cut" project. I copied the poor image as a layer, used warp to correct the parallax, corrected the contrast and colors and cropped it. I also used the stamp tool to remove the shadow of the push pins. Now it is presentable as student work for next fall's class. Before, it certainly was not. Don't present your work, or anyone else's in a poor light, literally or figuratively, if avoidable.
