This subject matter for this project was portraiture. I chose to challenge myself by mixing up some of the concepts. In the picture, the viewer can clearly see triangles, which is the only shape used to make up the portrait. Through my reference picture I determined where to place the colors accordingly to make this look like me. This is very much like "pixel art" because up close, there isn't much of an image, but further back the colors arrange into an image. This concept was the hardest I could think of, due to the nature of how difficult getting the triangles in the right spot was. After all the line-work, it was just a matter of getting all the colors in the right spot. I also used a sharpie marker to make a thick line around the picture to make the image popm more. I really don't like working with portraits because the margin for error is too high. There are too many things to consider when working on certain sections of a face. I've done a few portraits before, and were decent enough to look like me, but I still find this as one of my least favorite subjects.
