Illustrator practice 2

further 'design' work practice, pretty?

Adobe illustrator, I WILL GET USED TO YOU.

Hi Folks,

I am trying to get used to adobe illustrator, here is what took me half a day, just testing out things etc.

I found the best way was to go back and forth from AI and Photoshop and working with it on both programs.

This is just an initial wrapping paper design. But to push my work further into that direction im going to be attacking packaging design and greeting card/ giftcard design.


hope you like my little practice piece!

Geometric Universe.

I drew lots and lots of triangles and played around with the positioning to create this interesting pattern!
im really happy with the results!

im going to keep experimenting as ive mentioned before so i hope you enjoy!

also check my other work out at society6 :)

Graphic Design?

I started to play around with a more 'graphic' tone to my work, i really liked what i came up with.

and i think i'll be creating more work like this! especially with traditional materials!

Here are some of the drafts!
