Self portrait with scowl – LeMasney Consulting
I opened up PhotoBooth on my MBP, and took a quick close up shot of my face in a scowl. I brought it into Inkscape, converted the bitmap into a vector with both the edge detect and the threshold methods, then applied different colors to each and overlapped them. I added a background for the highlight, and finally added some plain black lines to emphasize my mouth and eyes, as they were getting a bit lost.

I think, I say I think I’d like to see the original image. Maybe not.
When you decide, I’ll consider it.
