Rick Mercer: Curvilinear

Part 3 of 4 of a series done for Illustration class in Fall 2002.

A black-and-whie planar illustration of actor/satirist Rick Mercer, done in india ink on tracing paper using "c" and "s" curves for all edges, with the tracing paper over a copy of a "literal" illustration done previously. The illustration was then scanned and cleaned up in Adobe Photoshop.

Based on a pencil tracing of a larger version of this photo: [link]
