"Hippo Challenge". 2017. Adobe Illustrator.

This piece was for an in class assignment in my Art & Digital Tools course. The work had to be completed in 40 minutes and transformed a generic photo of a hippo into an original artwork. I used vectors to posterize the image, then stuck to a teal spectrum palette to incorporate the aquatic nature of the hippo. The transparent circles echo bubbles of the water while the transparent stained glass kept the piece interesting.
