 Was a Portrait by Gilbert Stuart |  Was "The Love Letter" by Fragonard |
 Was a girl with a guitar by Vermeer | The Superimpose app is one of many ways to PHOTOSHLOP on the iPad. I used it to re-imagine these pieces of art with Fuglestad faces. This would be a fun lesson for my students that could easily connect with history, popular culture, fine arts, and prompt a writing activity.

Fuglestad Jones
 |  Mr. Fuglestad is a good sport. He posed for this Indiana Jones photoshlop with his best Harrison Ford expression. (He did pretty good, didn't he?) The lighting, tilt of his head, and overall coloring didn't match but I adjusted this with the superimpose app (and procreate app). |
 Original image |  bring in photo with matched expression and pose |
 mask your face w/ brush and blur edges  Filter to match color, contrast, brightness |  transform to match tilt, size, & proportions  Use gradient mask to blend |
The gradient mask helps you photoschlop like a pro. They feather the two layers gradually.
Try adding a filter over the finished piece to even out the coloring and/or texture
