Differences that I found between photoshop and illustrator were that photoshop is a painting program, while illustrator is a drawing program. Vector images are composed if paths that are used in illustrator. However, Rastor images are made of pixels amd are used in Photoshop.

I drew my Batman in Art 1 last year as my first sketch assignment. As soon as I turned it in Mrs. Ritchey was determined to get me into the Jefferson County School of Fine Arts. I had taken a long break from drawing before I did this sketch. I am proud of myself for moving forward and expanding my knowledge on the basics and graphics.
For my altered portrait created on illustrator, I decided to use a large amount of detail. In order to do this I used the pen tool to outline the much smaller shapes that are in my face. The light from the lamp coming at the left side of the picture defines more shapes than what would be defined without it. After I used the pen tool to create each shape in my face and neck, I then used the eyedropper tool to fill the shape with the most common color inside of it. After repeating these steps throughout the course of my work, I came to with a project that I am pleased to call mine.
