PROPOSAL:
For my own honors project I would like to do a detailed polygon design of a famous person, which will all be done on Adobe Illustrator. I am interested in this because I believe it is so creative to see a person through all different types of shapes. Also I am very comfortable in Adobe Illustrator than any other software. To complete this project I will have to pay close attention to detail and color. I anticipate that I will struggle at first to pick the right colors and making sure the design looks exactly like the person. To complete this project on time I will have to contribute to working on it every single day during pride or lunch and also work on it at home.

REFLECTION:
For my personal honors project I did a polygon of Chris Brown. Overall, I like the outcome of the polygon. Some things I could have fixed is some of the details in the picture I missed. For example, the dent he has in his right cheek I miss, and also, I could have changed the colors of his skin under the hat. During this project I faced so many challenges. The picture I chose was kind of hard to do because most colors were the same, so picking which colors to use was hard. Also, it was hard to pick which details I should use and which are not that necessary. The hardest part about this project is making sure it looked like a face. The nose for me, was extremely difficult because the colors I was using were also the colors on his skin too so I had to do a little extra detail to make sure the nose did not blend in with his face. This project contributed to my overall development in Digital Media. This project made me learn more about dedication and determination, in Digital Media I feel as though you need these two things to get stuff done on time and neat. Also, it helped me pay attention to details more and using my knowledge of colors to help create the face and make it pop. I learned so much from turning this Chris Brown picture into a polygon picture. I learned that choosing colors matter, you cannot just choose random colors and that you have to be precise about the colors chosen to use. I also learned that this project takes a lot of time and focus to get done. This project probably took me approximately 7 hours to do. After seeing the outcome it was all well worth it.
