these are some ideas for the first project of my electronic illustration class (chronological order be damned!) supposed to be a band poster and with the amount that i listen to his music how could i not pay props to Andrew Bird and his bowl of fire? even though he has dropped the bowl of fire these days. the first was my attempt to get a likeness of him even though in the final piece his face is at the side view and looks nothing like him. Mr. Bird, if you are for whatever reason reading this:

1. AWESOME, you are for some reason reading my blog.

2. you rock

3. your face looks totally different from profile view as it does from straight on (why?)

4. i have recently noticed that you look a lot like David Byrne (i think thats awesome)

(david byrne's face looks different from the side for that matter too)

PS: A. Bird doesn't really have squinty eyes like he does in the top drawing of him he was just playing violin in the picture i was useing as ref.
