For this personal project, I wanted to make a self portrait. I was inspired by a designer I follow on instagram, who uploaded his own self portrait of (basically) shapes with gradients to make up his face. This was a fun project to complete and I really tried my hand at a lot of Illustrator techniques and played around, trying to gain a little more experience. Overall I think the portrait has a good balance of brush strokes, shapes, and gradients, to make it look completed and decent.
