Self Portrait Experiments

You are required to produce a poster that represents you as a Designer/Illustrator/Photographer/or as a creative person in general.
This poster is to be based on a self portrait and designed to include a
typographic treatment of your name and a quotation that describes your
thoughts and feeling about your creative practice.
I started this project with no real thought process in mind. I began by trying messy interlace patterns with photographs which I brought in photoshop after sometime.
These are my experiments.
Afterwards I decided my true creative passion lies with Illustration. I wanted to try a number of styles I like and see where it takes me.
These were based off of "Disclosures" unique album covers.
This version was based off of a beautiful poster I saw on behance for the "True Detective" series. I found that I was getting closer to representing myself as
a designer but still I wasn't there yet.
Lastly after many hours of painting I arrived here my final iteration. I based this painting off of Raleigh Ritchies beautiful album artwork. I tried to do a variation on it and incorporate some features from Mr. Robot. My final quote I found really represented me as a Designer and Illustrator.  
Lastly my final typography to go with the finished piece.
 Based on retro 80's themed colours and hand painted type. 
Thanks for looking!
