Papercuts
As a dancer myself I know the feeling of light and joy that dancing can bring. I am interested in representing this in a silhouette of a dancer. I chose this picture of a dancer because of the way she is jumping so freely through the air, and also because her body forms such an interesting shape. I thought it would work for this exercise.
This is the finished shape after having put the photo through Illustrator. I used the lasso tool in Photoshop first, then proceeded to the shape in Illustrator. I tweaked the outline quite a bit to get the desired shape, and to clarify some of the shapes a bit more.
I like the pixie-like form that has taken shape here. This picture portrays what I set out to.
