I am using a high resolution picture taken of me by a professional photographer from when I involved with an 18th century Living History enactment group for my avatar. I'm thinking of using the color and texture of a strawberry leaf for the skin texture of my avatar. The background for the avatar with either be in a woodland tree setting with white pine trees predominant, similar to the movie, Avatar with the mother tree. An option for another background setting is to use Ft. Stanwix National Monument.

Since I already had this image at hand, it made sense to use the image to jot down possible goals for the transformation of the image into my avatar for the project, vs. sketching from scratch on paper. I'm curious to see where this goes!
