May - Line from a song - Matthew King

Artist: Matthew King

A little about the work:
For this piece of work, each of us had to get a picture from the internet and "vectorize" it in illustrator with only the "Mighty" Pen Tool and then match it to some Lyrics. After learning just earlier that day from a classmate (Jai) that you can change the way you use lines in illustrator I decided to use this idea and improvise a little changing the way lines flow from one to another and eventually came up with this. Afterwards I exported it and then imported it to Photoshop and cleaned it up to get it to it's current stage.

Lyrics:
"Ageless I remain, beyond the reach of death, indebted by my soul."
- The Black Dahlia Murder
