In my piece I feel I strengthened many tools that I can use in Illustrator while doing this assignment. One of my strengths in this piece is the simplicity of the piece. At the same time there is a very deep thought process as well as a lot of meaning for me in this piece. Another strength in this piece is the combination of creating an abstract picture but still using the organic nature of the assignment in my process for this piece. I personally feel it was an accomplishment for me to not go to crazy on this assignment and use numerous shapes that would make the piece fell overwhelming and so I feel that this was a strength in my piece by using a few simple objects but making it into an abstract picture that I am satisfied with. There were some weaknesses or some things in this piece that I would have liked to have done better or improve on in the future. I felt I could have done a better job with the shading in the piece. I think if I had more time I would have given the leaves in the picture, more “character” by messing with the shading on all the leaves. Another weakness I felt was the moon that I made for this piece. I felt I could have used some more tools to make it look more realistic or like the leaves, give it more “character.” One other thing I was not sure on in this piece was making the moon look like it had some type of movement to it. So what I did was give it some black splotches that were supposed to represent clouds in a way. But with the way it turned out after printing it, I don’t know if I should have used that particular method for representing movement in this particular situation. Overall I am happy with how the piece turned out though.
