Self Portrait

For this assignment I was assigned to redraw a picture taken of me. This self-portrait was layered out in adobe Illustrator using the brush blob tool. I had to work more with geometrical shapes to make the portrait much simpler. I had to outline the hair in a weird way in order to make the portrait more fluent and easier to color in when I shade in color. Using the pen tool is actually pretty difficult for me. If it wasn’t for the practice on illustrator/Photoshop I had before, this would of taken me hrs., except it took me just one. I did manage to make the outlines of the major shapes and dents though, and I have to say I really did capture my face in this one.
