Calligram

 This is my very first time using Illustrator so I am very excited!

I began with my 3 sketches...

Envelope distort was my go to for majority of this piece 

I used that process for the facial features

I even started building the face with primarily the Envelope Distort with Top image
I also used gradient to show all the values in the face
For the hair I tried a couple methods but ended up just sticking to Type on Path, I added more features as well continuing Envelope Distort and Gradient 

Eventually it all came together, I even added some more bubbles to fill up the negative space.

I feel the rest of the semester will be very interesting and complex with COVID and all but still enjoyable.      I expect to...
