This is a video playlist of my lesson on ‘creating a vector portrait’ using Adobe Illustrator. During my Design 1 course, students use Illustrator to create a vector portrait of themselves while practicing Illustrator’s drawing tools, colouring options and effects to compose a multi-layered vector illustration.
Watch the videos and share your vector portrait with me on Twitter or Instagram @iTeachAi or leave a comment below.

I wanted to create one of my own vectors. But I am having problems doing the mouth part. And your tutorial is only up to the eyes part. You helped me a lot. So I am wondering when you can maybe show the mouth and eye brows part of the portrait.
Thanks.
