We started the workshop by learning a number of different curve making methods using the pen tool. This was the first time i had used Illustrator and was surprised by how quickly i learnt the tools. I managed the majority of the exercise with ease, except for the last section that took a few tries.
Using the previous tools we had to trace the letter 'g'. Afterwards we used the anchor points to adjust any errors and make it true to the original letterform we traced from.
Using the eclipse tool, we created the same shape 'g'. When we had the correct shape we selected it all and chose the unite selection which joined all the shapes together giving me the basic outline of the shape. I then added the circles to the inside of the letterform.
