Project 2: Calligram


This project was made using Illustrator.  I picked a skull because they are always very interesting visually to draw.  First the image was traced using the pen tool and then the text was added by converting the lines to text using the type on a path tool.  I used a short story written by Edgar Allen Poe, to stay consistent with the darkish theme of this piece.
