My Calligram

I was most excited for this Calligram Project, but it was hard. I had to go home due to a family emergency for a few days so I never got to complete this one. I wanted to do it very realistic. I started off with the face, matching my skin tone, I constantly would check to see how it looked without the image there, to see if I was covering as much as I thought. The font I picked was sort of medieval in a sense.  I went back to each individual letter to alter it and make it larger and wider. I will definitely attempt to finish this on my own time since I think it would be really cool.

When this assignment was brought to us, I was very skeptical. I had no idea what I wanted to do. However I knew I desired a night scene, so I just started adding, duplicating, and altering. I worked with body curves, hair, tongues, arms, ears, and muscle cells. I felt I needed to get the light and shadow correct, so I spent a lot of time on that too. It turned out very cool and looks sort of real!

My Self Portrait

I consider my Self Portrait Project to be my most successful one. I had to decide what clothes I was going to wear and what background I wanted to use. I wore a plaid shirt because I knew it would be complicated, but I wanted to challenge myself. I choose to create my own background as a graffiti/splatter painted look with two of my favorite colors that match my skin tone. Using Adobe Illustrator, I picked to mostly use the blab brush to pigment my skin. I then utilized all the different paintbrushes to get the curly texture of my hair down. Overall, this project made me realize I definitely have some green going on within my face and I'm amazed at what this software can do.
