I’m back!

After a long period of inac­tiv­ity, I finally have some­thing new to show!

In my Graphic Arts 2 class, our first assign­ment was to draw on paper a pic­ture, or col­lec­tion of pic­tures that rep­re­sented us per­son­ally, then dig­i­tize it with Adobe Pho­to­shop or Illus­tra­tor. My draw­ing was a map of the world, with a line trac­ing through the var­i­ous places we have lived (see list here).

Mission MapThe point of the assign­ment was to warm up our Pho­to­shop (or in my case, Illus­tra­tor) skills.

I’ll soon post pic­tures of my com­pleted GA1 port­fo­lio from last year.

    I like this…especially when it’s full-screen.  Did you have to hand draw the world map?  Did you trace or simply have a model to look at?

    I just did a rough sketch on some paper, then tried to repli­cate the idea I had in Illus­tra­tor.

    So cool! I’ve thought many a time of doing some­thing like this… but the home­towns logo and and Life map are as close as I’ve gotten.
