typography





What I believe is the strongest part of my artwork is the "hair" of the person I did. its is more lined out than anything else in the picture. I could've improved on filling out the empty spaces more and making the words more visible. I used the "text" tool in order to create the words. I also used the pen tool to outline the person I was trying to trace. The easiest part of this project as the typing and the selection of the fonts and colors. the difficult part was trying to fill in the empty spaces. it was hard so I kind of gave up easily.
I met the goals that my teacher wanted me too meet for this project but I didn't meet my goals. I could've put more thought or effort into every little detail into this picture. if I could rate myself on this project it would be a 7, I didn't reach to my full potential. if I could do this gain, I would just fill it out with more words and colors.

polygon portrait




The strongest part of my artwork is the background of my picture. it makes the photo of myself stand out more and it compliments the skin tone of the portrait. I could've done a better job on my face. I could've put my effort into making it look more "real". I used the pen tool a lot. I created the different triangles with the pen tool, and I outlined my body and everything else. I also used the paintbrush and the fill tool, to color in the picture.
The easiest part of this project was the coloring. I got to pick the colors I wanted to used and fool around with different shades. the hardest part was trying to create colors that correspond to each other. I cant make each triangle the same color or the picture would look weird. if I could do this project again, ii would manipulate the pen tool more than I did in this project. I would create the round edges that the picture had, instead of making everything straight. I would rate my art work an 8, because I know I could've done a lot better than I did here. other people would look at my artwork and think 10, but I know my ability.
