About my design

by ozf5

If the interwebs are to be believed (and assuredly they are), Ben Franklin showed up to the first day of the Constitutional Convention with Spock ears and his "I Grok Spock" button.

Supposedly he had been playing his glass armonica too loud and all he heard was "Convention" and just assumed it must be a Trekkie Con.A quick thinking portraitst caught the bemused moment of realization of the mixup.

the actual photo looks upscaled and a little pixelated. Any chance of seeing a high res?

Thanks everyone for the comments. The frame was created in Illustrator and then colored in photoshop.where I was able to achieve a wood grain effect that I was happy with.

I may be able to post a high-res of Franklin's face. I think those are age spots, plus a little texture that I added to the face.
