Self portrait


This was the first project i did in my Adobe illustrator class, we were limited to ten colors. I really struggled because i couldnt see how to translate the drawing to flat shapes of shadow. We learn all through out school how to make things three dimensional and not flat. To now work backwards kind of threw me off but definitely taught me alot in the end.

PS much more fifth semester work to come!

Book Cover

I rendered this in Adobe Illustrator on top of a drawing. The assignment was to create a book cover using the original typography. I usually dont like using illustrator beacause everything looks really flat, but if thats the look your going for then it works well.
