Cartoon artist reflection


                                                                     Artist Reflection

     The strongest aspect of my work is the eyes because i blended a darker color  with a lighter color to get the right variation in the eyes and i added a white dot in the corner of the eye to make it more realistic. The aspect of my work that can be improved upon is the hands because the shape is off and the fingers are also off. 
      The difficult part of this art activity was creating the right shape in AI because it was really difficult to get used to the new tools. It was also hard to create the right shape. The easy part of this art activity was coloring what we had already traced. it was easy because i only had choose a color and then paint where i wanted it. 
      The objective of this art project was to learn the pen tool. I demonstrated it by tracing my original image as closely as I could. The pen tool creates a straight line if u just click and then drag and it creates a curve when you click and hold then drag. Then you use the handles to adjust the curves to the right shape.  If i could do this art project again i would redo the hands, so they look better. I would do this by re-tracing the arms and hands, so they match my original drawing better.
