Autoscopy

For my autoscopy, I pretty much just played around with the images until I had something I liked. I didn't really have a concept, I just took images I liked and stitched them together to create this one above. I knew from the beginning I wanted to change my eyes; originally I was just going to change my irises, but in the image my eyes weren't big enough to have a ton of definition between the iris and the rest of my eye so I just ended up doing the whole eye. After I replaced the eye, I didn't like how the cut came out so I ended up outlining the eye in a brown I picked with the eyedropper tool from my eyelashes. 

I couldn't choose between using an ocean stock photo or a sun stock photo for my eyes, but ended up deciding to do one of each because I liked the effect. I added the chalkboard writing to my shirt, because in the original photo it's a plain black that just looked too plain with the image. I used layer masks to increase the vibrancy of the clouds and the yellow sun for my eye.
