Photoshop POP Art

When I started this project, I messed with many different filters to try to make the image look good. I eventually decided on the cutout filter, making the image look more cartoon-like. I thought this made the image look better, however it messed with a lot of the shadows and made the image of my subject look scarier then it as meant to be. The background was the hardest part for me, because I had no idea for a while what to do, and eventually just made some custom shapes and threw them together.  
For the colors, I decided to use the colors the target originally had, just not as detailed. I thought the colors worked well together, though the skin tone was a bit brighter in the final product then I hoped for it to be. This was one issue I had with the cut out filter, which messed up some of the coloring in the image. 
I was inspired by Andy Warhol's art style. However the cut out filter made the subject look less like an Andy Warhol POP art subject. My original image colors were inspired by his colors, with the pinkish skin and brightly colored hair, but I later changed that. 
While editing the original photo, I used many tools, the most used being the brush tool. I first used the black and white filter after cutting out the background. I then just used the pen tool on a separate overlay layer to draw over the original image, bringing different colors back to the image.
