The assignment: "Create a vector-based self-portrait. Using the photographs we've taken in class as a guide, make a vector-based self-portrait with Adobe Illustrator. The object of this project is to be as visually detailed and honest as is possible while using only strokes and shapes. Illustrator-based effects such as blurs, blends, and gradients are not permitted. Strokes and shapes - that's all. Your primary tools in this project will be the pen tool (and its subtools), the pencil tool, and, possibly, the brush tool."
The Result:
I enjoyed it for the most part. I plan on delving into Illustrator a bit more when I get time.
I also have quite a few pieces from my ceramics class that I recently fired. I'll try to get some pictures of those when I can.
Oh yeah -- Woot for Obama. His speech was very powerful -- it almost brough a tear to my eye bahaha. I don't know if I was just feeling very wimpy last night or if his words were just that powerful. I'm going to say it was a mixture.
