Artist Statement:
The artwork I've created emanates a sense of mystery and fantasy, accentuated by the cool colour palette, invoking a powerful impression. Titled "Self-Titled," it incorporates elements reflecting my hobbies and interests: being an Aries, enjoying novels and badminton, and practising Tai Chi, among others. These constitute the primary components of this composition.
The chosen quote, "majestic introspect," embodies the significance of continuous self-reflection. Through introspection, one can rectify errors and calmly embark on self-exploration. Just like the enigmatic background imagery, the human body is filled with mysteries. The Tai Chi symbol, representing the interaction between the dragon and the phoenix, illustrates the principles of creation and balance.
Discovering one's goals through self-exploration provides the impetus to pursue them, while never forgetting the things that bring us joy. Remembering our initial aspirations, simplicity becomes the path to greatness.

Reflection
This course can be said to be my favourite among the three courses currently. Photoshop is powerful and likely to be the most commonly used software in the future. After all, in this era where appearance matters, countless precious moments are recorded every day. It's necessary to either share them online or use them for commemorative editing.
Therefore, the frequency of Photoshop usage can be quite high. Hence, it's important to strive to explore the unknown areas of Photoshop to be able to use it freely.
As a student studying design, one should also know how to draw, to bring the images in mind to life. However, lacking a foundation in drawing, using Photoshop to learn how to draw is also excellent. The effects in post-production are incredibly powerful and can elevate photos to a very sophisticated level.
