Week 8: Class Exercise- Vormator & Clipping Mask

This week's class exercise is The Vorrmator. It's a challenge to create a visual by using a very limited shapes and possibilities. We are provided with only eight vector shapes, called the Elements, which only allowed us to use within a given set of rules. The goal of the project is to show the importance of limitations on creativity.

Here's the given elements. Firstly we need to trace all these shapes & copy-pasting them, filled it with colors and use them to form an image.

These are all the examples of Vormator artwork. They are all formed by using all the 8 shapes above. 

This is my Vormator artwork, playing around with the 8 shapes that I have traced. Using just copy-pasting, pathfinder, & colors.

Then I use clipping mask to make the water color texture effect on my monster's body. 

Week 4: Class Exercise - Tracing

Today's Mr Hafiz class we learned how to use path tool and also pen tool as well. It's about the shadows of the pictures.

All we need to do is to replace the shadow of a pear with the shadow of a skull. I choose a picture of strawberry and using the pen tool and pathfinder to trace and place the shadow. Successfully places the shadow of the skull on the strawberry.

Then we were asked to trace a picture with shadows and lighting by using pen tool so here's my tracing :
