Okay, I have been playing with Adobe Illustrator again–it has been years since I worked with the program. This is an incredibly simple drawing, very flat and non-dimensional, but it was tons of fun. It is challenging to practice with new tools. I also used a small Wacom tablet for the first time. It is a little tricky to get used to, but I found it was more intuitive as I spent time playing.
Thanks to my friend, Gail, for allowing me to use her butterfly photo for the reference.
Hope you enjoy this one.
Simply beautiful! Is this for the bug book? Not the picture, but the style?
Thanks, Jaimie. I’m not sure yet, I’m playing with several ideas. I have the page layouts complete, now I need to decide on which medium to use.
