This was a pen tool exercise, where I picked a famous 

painting to recreate. I gained much more experience to 

become very controlled and fluid with the pen tool. 

This project was also a true testament to commitment 

and work ethic. While working, I didn’t have any point 

where I wanted to quit or give up.  What helped me the 

most, in the long run, was organizing the pen tool shapes 

in categories because I didn’t get frustrated at how many 

elements there were. The biggest take-away next to 

growing my pen tool skills was figuring out my process 

as a designer like how I go about problem-solving.
