Surrealism : Representation of the Mind Artwork



Last week we were given a task - to complete a surrealism piece of art, a representation of the mind.
These are the few steps and the final art piece at the end.

The sky background was chosen from an online source.

The wood texture was chosen and dragged to show depth in the picture.



A small part of the top of the head was removed to insert pictures/ objects in the later parts.
The head of the girl was taken from a given website and the Lasso Tool was used to removed the desired part of the head.


The "empty part" was clone stamped and coloured to make it look realistic.


The grandfather clock was also taken from the given website. It was removed from the original picture using several tools, re-sized and rotated.


The boat was also taken from another website. All the steps were repeated using the steps of the grandfather clock.


The box / suitcase was added all using the same website and steps as the former 2 objects.


The book's insertion steps are a repetition of all the 3 objects above.


Next, the 2 gauges were added. The pictures were taken also from the given website and re-sized  Dark circles were added below the eyes as shadow. 
Lighting, contrast, and all the other effects were added and adjusted to the picture to gain the desired artwork.


Last but not least, the completed art work.
