    I’m sure there will be a more professional approach however I’m a bit of a newbie myself.

    You can create s crude version by using the Live trace tool!

    • Open a new file choosing the correct settings based on the media you intend this artwork to be used on.
    • Place the image onto your new artboard.
    • Click on the drop down options next to the Image Trace button and select high fidelity.
    • Then from the Image Trace advanced options change the Path and Corners to 100%
