My Cartoon Head
On Inkscape we made cartoon heads. I made a basic shape for the outside of the head, for this one I used a circle. I then added ears and eyes. I made the eyes by making a white circle then duplicating it and making it smaller and blurring it and putting in a pupil. I then made the mouth and added the teeth by using the intersection tool. The intersection tool makes things fit into something perfectly. Making the head has really helped my skills, know I can use intersection for more things to make stuff look more accurate. I also know how to make eyes look realistic. Making the head was quite challenging but I am glad I made it as I have learnt a lot.

Heart
When we started doing Vector Graphics the first proper picture we made was a heart. We used a few different tools and methods. We made basic shapes and then made them in to a path by turning object to path. By doing this we could then change the nodes, add nodes and edit the nodes to make them to different shapes by selecting a different shape. I made my heart have a 3D affect by duplicating it and moving it slightly. I made a backround by putting a box around the page and selecting a colour. The nodes are very usful in other pieces of work and doing on a heart was a great way to start using them.
