Drawing and Imaging

Part 1: Sketches

I was very excited for this project as Anne allowed us to write our names in other languages instead of English. I chose Urdu which is one of my mother tongue.

Part 2: Hand Drawn Name

For this part I used acrylic paints and black sharpie to write my name down in Urdu, my first language.

 

Part 3: Putting in Illustrator

This was the step where I struggled the most

 

Part 4: Name on wall

 

 

I chose this wall from the 14th street subway station while walking to class.  I aspire to have my name written on one of the walls of the city one day.
