Gandhi Illustration

Mahatma Gandhi has been a huge inspiration in my life. This was one of the most difficult art projects of my senior year. The assignment was to create an illustration of someone who inspired you. Here's the catch, you had to create the illustration by using a quote or phrase that represented the individual. You had to shade by varying the size of the writing. I chose Gandhi's famous quote, "Be the change you wish to see in the world." This quote means so much to me. This project was done in sharpie marker. This project took me very long and was grueling. However, I love the result. To be honest though, I sometimes prefer my sketch over the finished project. I had to rewrite that quote probably a thousand times, but it was worth it.
