Analogous Color Scheme
The problem for this project was to create either a dynamic full-bodied character or a 1-to-2 point perspective interior piece. I decided to challenge myself and create a full-bodied character. I am very used to drawing sketches of characters using pencil and paper, so recreating my sketch digitally was a hurdle I had to overcome. 

Although I have experience using Adobe Illustrator, I had never utilized it to create a project such as this one. I learned tools such as the Live Paint Selection and Live Paint Bucket. Learning how to change the color scheme was another tool that would allow me to further my skills with this application for possible future projects. 

Out of the three sketches I did I am very glad that I chose this design as I felt like it had more to offer when it came to thinking about how to shading and highlights. Out of all four color schemes, I think that the analogous color scheme complements the design well. Overall, I am very content with how my project turned out.
