It's a Sunny Day- Photoshop Design

This photo was shot digitally outside and then I decided to use photoshop to design it. I did not have any idea what kind of design that I wanted to do and my clothes were so plain jane that it was hard finding brush designs that collaborated with my photo. In the photo you can see me with a red t-shirt and a black hooded sweater just cheesing real hard. In the background I used five different type of brushes and three different colors (red,blue-violet, and yellow) from photoshop to create my designs. I started using the brushes where the focal point is (me) and then I worked my way down. At the last minute I decided that I wanted the top portion to be different so I grabbed a huge brush and smacked down over my head. The result of the design was circles, angelic winged brushes, and and paint smears. The big circles above my head actually pulls the attention away from me, which is not what I wanted to focus on. I was really trying to make the photo look like an advertisement magazine page that promoted drug prevention for teens, but I failed to make that communication and it looks more like I am in cartoon land!
