For the second digital manipulation, I used Photoshop and Wacom, to produce surreal like images. Wacom provided better control over the tools on Photoshop. The aim was to highlight the elements that make the concept of Muthappan stand out in a society constrained with social barriers created by caste and religion in India. By incorporating the images taken during my trip to Parassinikadavu Temple and watercolour background of coconut palm leaf (to represent Kerala- as Kerala is known for its rich coconut cultivation) I created three posters like images. Overall, I believe the outcomes meet my expectations and highlighted the elements well. The only challenge I had to face was to get control over the wacom as it was my first time working with one. After watching online tutorials, I feel confident to use it for my future projects as I really enjoyed working with Wacom.
