I think I will start making more posters with abstract backgrounds.

Process
1
Here's the start of Gary's poster for his 25th birthday. Does he look like he's sleeping or thoughtful? I hope thoughtful, because that's what I'm going for.
2
Okay, I got the face down. And the arms.

4
The outlines are complete.
5
I had completely colored the outlines, then Illustrator crashed. AHHH! #5 is the point were I had saved.
6
Illustrator crashing was actually good, since it made me try something new. The background was inspired by rubenslp at deviantArt, which Carol told me about. Almost there!
7
I added colors on Gary's arms and shirt, then simplified the lines on Gary's shirt.
