While getting to know illustrator, we were tasked with exploring the tools [and brushes] to create or recreate a picture of a person or character. This is a picture that I creates with the different brush strokes to create this character, however, with the use of the polygon tool, I was able to design his glasses. I created the background with a rectangle that I applied the gradient too, then applied the brush stroke tool again over it to get the checkerboard look.
