Evaluation my work process
This is a screenshot showing the comparison with and without filter effect for the peacock I did in Photoshop.
The first screenshot shows that I added colour using the swatches bar tool to select the colour for the peacock. It looks like basic colour of the peacock without any details.
The second screenshot shows that after I coloured the peacock and just started too experimented with different filter effect. Then I selected oil paint filter effect because it shows many details such as the feather and tail more clearly.
My solution is that I like the second image with the oil paint filter effect because it is shows lots of clear detail. The feather and tail stand out more in details.It look a proper art work with the background show the peacock look so real.
Overall I was trying to experiment with many different technique and tools on Photoshop with the peacock for pre-production task.
