Type Portraits

The type portraits were VERY interesting to me. The technical idea was very easy to comprehend yet extremely difficult and time consuming to execute.

Shape- The shape portrait was the easiest to execute. I used a very recent picture with very defined shapes within it to create this piece. It was the easiest execution for me.

Line- The line portrait is my favorite project to date! I think the finished product not only encapsulated my emotion and expressions perfectly but it is very well defined. Little touches such as the jewelry and the attention to facial details really made this picture.

Value- My least favorite of the three. I had a lot of trouble with this project- as the original picture was very bright in certain places where definition needed to be accented. I was not able to fully grasp the technical ability to execute properly. However I am proud of certain aspects such as the earring details, and the hair and face outlines.
