In the initial stages of learning to use Illustrator we have looked at the work of Julian Opie. His simplistic portraiture acts as quite a nice template to try and replicate. Using his style we have tried to create our own designs of ourselves. Unlike Photoshop, I have used Illustrator very infrequently, and though there are many similarities between the two pieces of software it has still taken some time to get used to. The initial stages of my own Opie design can be seen below, and is one that I will continue to work on in the coming weeks.
