So for my General Illustration class, we had to choose an inanimate object and make it into a face of a person or animal. This assignment was difficult for me because I guess sometimes it is very hard for me to see outside the box (good thing I'm an artist, right?). Anyway, after looking at countless can openers and radios and doorknobs, I finally found a giant metal cylinder in the middle of a dirt field which I'm guessing holds some type of oil. When I saw it, I noticed that the legs that held it up looked like tusks and I saw the eyes in the rust spot. Also, the head was very big in comparison to the body. So my thinking was baby...and walrus...BABY WALRUS! It seemed to just jump at me out of thin air. Anyway, I have not painted it yet, only transferred it on illustration board. I'll be doing it in either gouache or acrylic. I'll post the finished illustration next week.
