                                                                               folded

      I choose fold as my action word because I think it is interesting. Usually we use the word fold on some soft objects like paper. And in common sense , we cannot fold somthing hard. So the limitation offers me the oppotunities to do some interesting work with photoshop.
      I choose my cup as my day-to-day basis. When I see the assignment asks me to find something I use everyday but do not give much thought to,   I look around all the stuff on my table and choose the cup. Accurately I use the cup around every 30 minutes for water, it is so important to me but I usually not pay much attention to it.
      First I take a picture of my cup and put it into photoshop. I divide the cup into 5 parts and create 5 new layers for them. For each part, I use distort tool from edit-transform to change it from rectangle to parellelogram. That is the way I get my final work. It is not obvious to tell the cup is folded but I think the way I go through is right, I just need to learn more tools and be more skillful.  But I like my work and I gain much from the process.
