I wanted to recreate this illustration because I thought it would be interesting having to create it using a collage of shapes rather than free hand with more curved lines. What it stands for is always in the back of my mind, in addition details such as the sun, which I did in a more cubic, Mayan manor. It took me about 12 hours to understand and write the code. At first, understanding how to fill the the shapes and how they interact with each other was a learning curve. However, the picture became more vivid after I got into the flow.

My Intentions For Fall Semester

    Good Evening, my name is Isaiah Stephens. Im from Baltimore, Maryland and have two younger brothers who motivate me to get up every morning.  I am very optimistic and genuinely excited to be in Digital Media. I had a Digital Media class in high school, and that class was easily one of my favorites because of the creativity involved. In addition, I think Ms. Roundtree is a good professor judging by the first day of class and her online resume. I would love to get to know you, Ms. Roundtree, on a personal level to understand your struggles and successes having held certain positions involving creation and PR for businesses, as well as being of a different nationality. Many of the jobs you've held, such as creative directing for an entity, is exactly what I plan to do for a living and having a professor with personal experience,  I think could really help. Also, I have a pretty good general knowledge of all of the Adobe programs because I enjoy creating and editing in my free time
