Background and Process:

I wanted to do something organic, everything I have been doing recently has been pretty post industrial.  I started with a nice fat font.  there are a lot of gradients and pen work in there.  One thing i had to learn to do this was the pathfinder tool in Illustrator.  It hurts me like trucks without brakes, but I got it.  It also serves as a nice little shout out to one of the best owner/operator natural vegan bakery in Ohio .  Check the shop out on Facebook here

until tomorrow

Process and Back story:

I was just basically playing with gradients and drop shadowing.  It is very easy to start throwing effects on images in bad taste.  Its a thin line to walk.  you can easily make things too glaring or dark.

Not much more to say than that.

Until tomorrow.

Background and Process:

I have been thinking about doing some illustrations in Illustrator, and flowers seems to be a good place to start.  I think these turned out well.  I liked the color choices.  Seeing as I live in a slightly sub tropical climate now, I suppose I should start using more vibrant colors, more so than the grays and blues I usually do.  At least with these I didn’t have to use the symbols tool, I hate that thing.  Though I am looking at taking on another symbol project Monday.  As usualish, I will post up some design links tomorrow, as Friday is …well, Friday.

and yes, Jen wanted flowers.

Till Tomorrow,

Me

ps:  I am trying to figure out why these recent entries are coming out a little pixelated, they haven’t done that before.
