  This is my third attempt of Destroy the Icon, which is based off of her landing in Fortaleza, Brazil. Her last stop before crossing the Atlantic Ocean.

 This is my second attempt at Destroyed the Icon, it is based off of her announcement of her plans to fly around the globe in Miami Florida. It is the start of her flight across open water.

  I decide to warp in a USA flag and a vintage global map to start of the series with her first "chapter" of her a round-the-world flight. This began in Oakland, California.

Initially I had posted a photo of Audrey Hepburn for my iconic photo for this project. However, we were instructed to visit the library to find an iconic photo within a book there. While I was searching I ran across this photo of Amelia Earhart, which I knew I already owned! This inspired me to change my photo from Audrey Hepburn to Amelia Earhart. Along with this her exact cause of death was for a long time debated, even though the Coast Guard declared she crashed into the Pacific Ocean with her co-pilot during her flight around the world. I think with this Idea I might be able to warp the photo into my own art which wouldn't subject me to copy right.  

  I have decided to take this iconic photo of Audrey Hepburn to use for my Destroy the Icon Project.

  This is my final version of the fantasy appliance for critique. I ended up getting stuck with the idea towards the end, however, I enjoyed working on this and learning how to use Adobe Illustrator.

Last week I took a look at the comments from the critique and tried to incorporate what was said within my work as I continued.
