The was created for a school project that we had to use a photograph and using a max of 5 colours recreate the photograph in Photoshop. I did two versions of this, one was grey scale, but I didn’t like how it looked so I did up one in Sepia tones which this was the result that I like the most to submit. I have since dun up other such portraits of people and animals well varying results and interest.
