Here is my first Visual Assignment, Fat Cats Make Art Better.  I decided to go a different route and use a photograph as the setting for my fat cat.  Here is the original cat in his natural setting:

Using this famous photo of John Lennon and Yoko Ono as the setting I first cut out the cat from its original background in FotoFlexer. Then I added the background picture behind the cat and blurred the edges so he appeared to be lounging on Yoko’s lap. Once I saw the assignment and this photograph it wasn’t hard to “Imagine” including a fat cat.
