i started buy drawing out a design with the pen tool

i really liked adding the dots into the background so i added more but i used a let green and i think the green really works well with the black

after adding the green dots in to the background there didn't really stand out so i used the box tool and added a gray box into the background to mack the green dots stand out 

then i put a box around the outside of the image to make the image standout from the background i used the pen tool to make the box around the outside 

then i started to add colour in to the skull i used the same green in the eyes  as the dots in the background and also i put it in the teeth of the skull as well

after adding colour to the eyes and teeth i wint on to add colour and tone in to the skull i use three types of gray dark to light to show tone in some parts of the skull 

after adding all the tone in the skull i made a new layer and went over it with the same yellow i used on the bone and the added some dark cream for tone

tips and skills

Employers are often looking for skills that go beyond qualifications and experience.

While your education and experience may make you eligible to apply for a job, to be successful at the job you will need to exhibit a mix of skills ‘employability skills’.  This means that the specialist, technical skills associated with different roles may be less important than the 'soft skills' that can be transferred between different jobs and different employment sectors. 

For employers, getting the right people means identifying people with the right skills and qualities to fulfil the role and contribute to the organisation's success.  Candidates may have the qualifications and hard skills needed to be able to manage the job role but without a well-honed set of 'soft skills' employers are less inclined to hire.limcourse and night classes
