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).
The 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.
