Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn Monroe character created by using Illustrator 

20th November 2014


























In one of our workshop lesson we used Adobe Illustrator, this software lets you create different characters and animated images intriguingly. As we were still getting use to the software I uploaded a picture of Marilyn Monroe and traced around the face using the pen tool. Thereafter traced round the hair, eyes, lips etc as different parts of the image. I used the fill tool to make those parts of the character into the right colour. For the eyelashes and the eyebrows the simplify tool was used as it would smoothen the shape. Finally the rest of the details of the face was added. I could change the colour and size of the stroke to make it look more effective.
