So, for the new year, I decided to break a resolution. I had intended to follow a strict theme of faces on this joint, but as you can see here, I feel that Inkscape offers a lot of things that are expressed better as other things besides faces. I think this might make a nice t-shirt or something, for example. So for technique, I converted the word funky! to a path and played with it to make it, well, funky. Then, I added 3 dynamic offsets and colored them with warm colors. Then, I took the word monkey, converted it to a path, applied a bend live path effect, applied a sketch live path effect, and then duplicated it, converted the duplicate to a path, filled in the centers of each letter with color, then added a dynamic offset to that. I added the black background and clean text at the top. Happy New year you funky monkeys!
