INTRODUCTION

In this project, I learned the true meaning of Gestalt. It means an organized whole that is perceived as more than the sum of it's parts.

Gestalt is an image that makes 2 images in one, it could made out of someone's initials, face, animals and it could make something out of it.





 ROUGHS

In this part, I redrew my 2 best rough gestalt images. One was a boxing glove with my 3 initials  GHC). The 2nd is a badge with my 2 initials (GC).

















 
In the final comprehensive, I smoothed and edited my final gestalt and created my initials better so it would look professional.
