The purpose of the Mind Map is to get to know one another and the classroom as a whole. We used images to describe ourselves and used those to create an single "Hi this is me" image.
The process of completeing this was interesting because i'm really good with photoshop and making edits, but I'd never used Illustrator before and it was weird getting used to it.
I chose the design I chose because I love to read so I thought including a book as the central image. I originally wanted to do a sort of Tumblr theme because I spend a lot of time on tumblr, (I've made over 4000+ posts since April), but I couldn't remember what the theme looked like and didn't know how to translate it into my own image.
I chose the two big images at the top (8123's logo and the Maine's logo) because they make me smile. the Maine is my favourite band and since the boys make me happy all the time I figured I'd just use it because why not? 8123 is kinda the same. The Maine formed 8123 after signing to a major label and making an okay record, they wanted to do their own thing. I love all the bands on 8123 and it would have been super tedious to trace all their logos as well. The Tumblr was described above (Spend a lot of time on Tumbling) and the Journal/pen is because I love to write and draw terrible doodles and I just decided to draw it. The cat with wings is actually a CatBat. A CatBat is something I created in advisory earlier this year and it's kinda my signature piece, I guess.
I would have actually closed the lines. That was a pain but I guess it looks good.
