The Girl with the Pearl Earring

Overview

This project is a 3D study based on Vermeer's The Girl with the Pearl Earring. It was created as an early exercise in Blender to practice blocking, proportion, and the translation of a familiar two-dimensional image into three-dimensional form.

My Contribution

I rebuilt the model from scratch in Blender while following a guided tutorial as a learning framework. The focus was not on original concept design, but on understanding Blender's interface, viewport navigation, shape construction, and basic modeling workflow.

Process and Outcome

Blocking Practice: The main objective was to simplify an organic subject into basic geometric forms such as cubes, spheres, and cylinders.
Blender Fundamentals: Through the project, I learned core navigation, transformation tools, and the relationship between reference material and 3D form.
Early 3D Workflow: As one of my first 3D exercises, the project marked an important starting point in developing my understanding of digital modeling.
