Artist's statement: "I made this design because it was a picture I took of a popular graffiti wall in my hometown. I like the edits I used, especially the functions that made the picture look blocky. They are perhaps my favorite edits. Just making sure the collage was clean but still functional was the most challenging part yet, and also my favorite part. Getting to see the end results and getting to have others look at the work felt really nice but being able to look at the code I wrote, knowing the time I put into it, made me happy."

Artist's statement: "I was very inspired by Andy Warhol for this collage and found it entertaining to customize the colors of my cat, Alfie. When he's not busy being the star of CS 120 collages, he spends his days lazily lounging, chomping ankles, and guarding his family from petrifying moths and water bowls. Adding my signature at the end was the most challenging part, as it took multiple days and many trials to do. The most rewarding part was finally figuring out my signature and making my collage complete. My dad supported me while I was working on it, and I'm excited for him to see the result. His smile will be the real reward. :)"

Artist's statement: "I chose the beginning image as I like the TMNT, but there’s nothing in particular I’d like people to know about it. I found making the collage look nice to be the most difficult. The most rewarding part of the college was to finally see the finished product."

Artist's statement: "I chose the design of my collage because I wasn't going to be able to finish my original vision in the time given when I really started working on the project, thus I pivoted to my textbook cover. The most challenging part of this project was getting rid of the black background so that the seahorses could properly overlap. The most rewarding part of the creation was the final project, being able to look at something I made and say "hey that looks pretty close to what I was trying to replicate, alright let's send it in."

Artist's statement: "I wanted to find the perfect balance between looks and simplicity. I stuck to functions I was pretty familiar with. Adding my signature was a bit challenging; at first i wanted it in the bottom left but found it easier to leave it in the top left. Being voted to be in this art show was rewarding!"

Artist's statement: "I chose this design because I wanted to keep my choices limited to pictures I took myself. I thought by doing so it would reduce the time taken designing it and knowing what I wanted to do with it. The most challenging part for me was getting the copy and crop functions to work. The most rewarding part of this project was seeing my work come together to finally get the project completed."

Artist's statement: "Big Ben is a great tall structure and I wanted to see it replace the Eiffel tower because I like it more. Finding the merge function and being ready to call it at the right spot was the hardest. I was rewarded to see the Eiffel tower gone, and Big Ben in its place."
