Creating a Photo Vignette
A vignette of a photo of our dog, Corky.
Effects Through Selections
The image on the left resulted by following the bar selection steps. However, I didn't offset the bars in these images. I wanted something a little more realistic. I then applied the Filter | Brush Strokes | Spatter and a significant amount of blur. The image on the right resulted from the same bar selection effect with the application of Filter | Brush Strokes | Ink Outline.
Background Removal
This is the original image that I used for my portrait exercise.
As with most teenage boys (and girls) there is much to be eliminated from the background.

Creating a Finished Portrait
A lot of fun this week but the portrait was not the easiest thing that I have done.
