Pumpkin Pop Art

Here is a Che Guevara version of a picture I took of my cat a while back.

You can almost hear him say: "Mao!"

To make this picture, I adapted instructions found in a You Tube instructional video on using Gimp to turn a photograph into pop art. The main change I had to make from the video's instructions was to remove all the background as my cat has light collored fur; his fur didn't work out so well even with a fairly light background... So after removing the background elements, adjusting the color balance and contrast, and removing more background elements, I pretty much followed the video instructions.
