Photoshop work Objec&ve: To create a nursery rhyme in a style not usually associated with it.

Solu&on: I chose to create the London Bridge is Falling Down nursery rhyme in a grunge style in Photoshop with the use of layers. I found a great background image and cut the bridge apart to give it the “falling down” effect. Also using opacity of different objects in the work.
