This project was interesting in terms of using variables and math to find the coordinates to my shapes, as opposed to using Illustrator and/or Photoshop to do it for me. At first, I found this project to be challenging, but as I kept adding more objects to the face, I started to understand and familiarize myself with the process of creating this variable face.
