But first.....Let me take a selfie

You are going to continue to work in Photoshop today. You will be completing the 20 faces assignment which is in my resources folder.

For this assignment, you must have a photo of yourself. If you don't have one on your computer, take a picture of yourself on your phone and email it to yourself. If you don't have a phone, ask your neighbor.

All 20 faces must be saved as a jpeg file and inserted into a word document. So you will have all 20 faces in one document. You can just replace the photos in your assignment with your own creations.

Have fun!
