Visual Journal Assignment #6


Due: Monday, October 7th

Kristin Tersek is an artist and illustrator that has a knack for creating cute and yet somewhat odd characters out of everyday objects, like food.

For this visual journal assignment, you are going to create your own “food character” in the style of Kristin Tersek. Kristin often uses her food of choice as the head of the character and then creates a simplified body under it. The eyes are reflective circles, with one larger than the other.

Use the photos of Kristin’s work to help you create your character. Even though you’re creating a drawing inspired by her work, you don’t want to copy any of her images exactly.

For your paragraph, you will write about how you came up with your character design and a little bit about who you envision your character to be. What is your character’s name? What are their likes and dislikes?
