This projects purpose was to find any natural letters in the environment and take pictures of them and then arrange them to look like your name. As for my name, I took pictures of multiple letters for the alphabet letter below with only 13 of them being an actual letter and the rest being objects that look like the letters. I then took all of the letters and, one by one, cropped them in Adobe Photoshop and put them in an Adobe Illustrator to arrange them as they look for the alphabet project below. I then took the 4 letters of my name out from the alphabet project and arranged them to form my name in a separate Adobe Illustrator file.
At first, this was just a picture of me. But after putting it in photoshop and adding a filter and adjusting the color, I got a picture of this. I then traced the picture onto a big piece of paper using a projector and painted over it with multiple different shades of the color used. The color was first black and I mixed it with white top change the value and hue and it got lighter and lighter so I could have a nice gradient. In the end it turned out like this and I think that I have done a good job with it but if I were to do it again I would be more careful with painting as I made mistakes that were non-erasable.
