Photoshop Pumpkin 
15 image Photoshop collage

 Monster 
 I will be coming around and checking these into the gradebook. 

Then Create a new photoshop document that is 11” x 8.5” or 8.5” x 11 depending on if you want landscape or portrait 
Your spooky scene should incorporate AT LEAST one of you monsterized.
 It must include a background, mid ground and foreground. 
 It must have at least 10 layers i.e. objects. 
All photos must be edited to your high standard! 
 This should read as a fun cohesive composition.

 TIPS: Remember to place each item into a new layer for east editing! 
Create a copy layer to have multiple of an item.

Andy Goldsworthy:
What a perfect time to be working in the manner of Andy. The leaves have changed early this year due to the drought, and color is at it's peak. I have also noticed a lot of little branches in my yard that would be great for creating a little maquette for Andy.

I also am thinking that the cranberries, corn stalks, gourds and anything else WI has to offer would make for a worthy Goldsworthy.

Super excited to say the least. Can't wait to see what my students create.
