A mandala is a circular picture which each peace is rotated to make a design. My mandala was made by opening a picture and white template with a circle on it. Then you use your magic brush tool to select on of the triangles. Then you pull the picture out of photoshop to use the move tool to drag the triangle over to the picture. When you have the spot you want hit command C to copy the image and then put the picture back into photoshop. When you have gotten back to the circle you hit command V to paste the image. Then you rotate and merge layers also if you cant get the triangle close enough to the other one use your arrow keys to help the pieces fit together. When your done merge all the layers and save as a jpg. My favorite image was the paint brush one because it just turned out really detailed. The Hardest part was making sure all the pieces fit perfectly. If I had to do it over again I would have used different pictures.
This the Original picture What is a Tessellation? A tessellation is a repetition of a picture rotated to make a pattern. Tessellation is made by picking a part of a picture. Then open a white layer box and opening the picture in photoshop. Then you put guides on the white sheet to make it easier to line up the picture. The image must be a square such as a 1:1 or 2:2. The guides must also match the size of the picture. Then you pull the picture out of photo shop and drag it onto the white sheet. Then you can rotate and use vertical and horizontal to move the picture. To make it easier marge the layers by selecting the layers you want by holding down command and selecting merge layer. Then you just duplicate the two merged layers. Once your don move all the guides and make sure there are not any white lines. In the end merge all the layers and save as jpeg. My favorite image was the one of Milo jumping because of how bright the colors are. I struggled with rotating the picture the right direction. If i did it over again I would go to the beach and use waves as my tessellation.
