For my last visual assignment, this one we were told to take a picture and transform it to make it look like a drawing! So I used a picture that I already had on my computer to do this assignment. My friend Grace and I like to go to this coffeeshop downtown. Last fall, once soccer was over, this was one of the first things we decided to do together!

We went downtown, got coffee, and tried to start doing homework… but just ended up taking selfies instead… not surprised. This was one of my favorites of the few I took and it ended up becoming a profile picture of mine on Facebook for awhile! Anyways, so I opened the picture in Picasa, an image editing software I have on my laptop. I opened the picture and went to the effects section, and clicked on Pencil Sketch. I really wanted to make this picture look like it was sketched with a pencil on a notepad. I really like the way the picture turned out. The geometric lines in the background really caught my attention and how sharp and detailed the Pencil Sketch effect made them become.
