Process of removing the shadow

 How I got this...



to this...

First I tried to use the background removal tool, which removed part of Daisy's body, so I had to scrap that idea!

Then I used a picker tool to pick out the colour of the wall nearest Daisy's body, and clicked on the brush tool (size around 10-20) and outlined Daisy's body- where the shadow was- to get an idea of the colour difference of the wall and the body.

Next, once I had drawn the outline, I went back to the colour picker and started to paint in next to the shadow. I decided to paint as due to the wall not being a bright white, the eraser tool would have removed the background of the image.

Although the process of picking and choosing the different paint colours was a rather ling winded process, I believed it was the only way I would be able to get rid of the shadow, as well as the skirting board, without the image looking distorted or tampered with. I wanted my image to look as natural as possible.
