Contrast (Or Type face because I that's what I turned into my drop box)

This piece was made from letters and symbols of different fonts, and the only modification I was allowed to do, was size and layering. The piece is basically an old man put together with letters of black and white, he has a tie and a cane, with trimmed moustaches and shaved beard hair. He has a moderate haircut, bordering a buzzcut and has eyebags and a belt, I went with gut instinct making this picture, and it developed from a normal human into an old man.

No pattern being a singular figure, and having nothing in the background that would in anyway hint that there was a pattern anywhere else in this piece. Nothing to contrast unless you count the old man being colored white against the black background, which is technically contrast, yeah I guess it does have contrast. The only thing to emphasize is the old man which I guess the piece does pretty well considering he is contrasted against the background. Asymmetrical balance yet again because there isn't a pattern, no pattern around a circle kind of design, and because the two sides are unequal. I don't think it has unity because not all the elements of art work together, and because as a singular object it wouldn't include anything that involve multiple objects (ie: Unity).

The piece represents an old man, looking at the viewer with longing eyes, I am going to assume he is homeless or something and would like your help or attention. The previous statement is something I made up in a flash and honestly did not expect to do because I made this piece up as I went. The message would probably be to help out homeless people, but the artistic message would be that sometimes making up art as you go isn't so bad after all.

I feel that artistically it is successful as it could be much worse as i've seen before, but in that same way I maybe could have added something to spice it up. What I mean is that, considering all the other entries for this same project, it could have been more interesting, this is a generic old man technically. Despite that, being made with only letters and symbols, it looks good for the way it was made and with that limitation.
