Adobe Illustrator

 Project Description: Today i finished my first illustrator project. It was easy at first creating basic shapes like circles and triangles but then the fun began with the pen tool. The pen tool was very difficult to use especially having to make a rabbit, a key, and a four leaf clover. Personally I enjoy using photoshop better because it is basic and easier to use. We'll see how illustrator gets with more work coming along.

Shape Tools: Stars, Squares, Circles, and Triangles.

Drawing Tools: Pen Tool, Pencil Tool, and Selection Tool.

Self Reflection: I thought that making the basic shapes like circles and triangles was the easiest part of  illustrator. The most difficult part of the tutorial was getting used to the pen tool. It took a while to get familiar with it but once you got it right, you can make really great shapes.

Participation/Tutorial: I put a lot of effort on this tutorial but gave up after the pen tool began frustrating me. Overall the tutorial was completed and it was pretty good. Overall i would rank my work 8/8.
