Project-04-String-Art

I wanted to do a silhouette of Disney’s Ariel so I worked from a reference photo to sketch out the original plan.  However, after I was done with the silhouette, I realized she looks more like Aurora.  The overall coding was difficult but after I settled into a rhythm with her profile, it became a little easier.

Original sketch:
