Self Portrait

Using all the new tools learned in Illustrator this assignment was to create a "painterly" self portrait. When "drawing"/"painting" the portrait the goal was to utilize different techniques for different parts of the face and head. Different textures, brush styles, etc, to differentiate between things like hair, skin, eyes, teeth, fabric, etc. The background should compliment the portrait in some way, and can be abstract or representational, but NOT a photograph.The finished product does not visibly show the photo underneath.
