Susan B. Anthony Gold Dollars

I uploaded a saved png of my silver dollar with the baby face and just used the paint bucket tool to change the background and the paint brush tool to erase the baby


I then drew a Susan B. Anthony look a like (not hardly) and used the paintbrush to add 1999


In MS word I changed the fill color of my circle


Added 1999 onto my old text art and uploaded a real Susan B Anthony face


Resized it 

And my two images are below:

“Class 5, Assignment 6"


I tried my hand at photo shop with an image of my own. I used the clone tool to give myself longer hair and a smaller torso!

Great response Diana! I also share your sentiments about body image and self-perception. I'm really petite, 5'2 105 pounds and I wear a size zero too. On the one hand I feel like my size has allowed me not to feel ostracized in a society where obese people are looked down upon BUT I still have to tangle with feelings of inferiority because I am so slim. I don't necessarily like the implication that women should be curvy and voluptuous because like you said there is beauty in diversity, and beauty in all different forms. I just wish the media wasn't so adamant about shaping body politics. I was always told from a young age that I was beautiful because my parents recognized the necessity of building self-esteem in me and my sisters. I believe that self-perception shapes how good we feel about ourselves and how we relay those thoughts to others. The video I chose was the Dove Real Beauty sketch, it really captures the self-esteem issues people have with themselves that cause them to be too critical, more critical then your average person.
