Assignment
Use the Adobe Illustrator techniques shown in class (this week and previous weeks) to create a new original Adobe Illustrator drawing.
- Step one: Select one of your favorite "Old Master" paintings.
- Step two: Select one of the vector-based Illustration artists above. Study their style and technique.
- Step three: Create a new 100% Adobe Illustrator drawing, inspired by the painting in step one, using the techniques learned from the artist in step two.
Create one new Illustrator composition:
- Match the aspect ratio of the original painting, with the shortest edge being 8 inches.
- Create a document with bleed.
- Your drawing should incorporate the color palette from the painting.
- These drawings should be 100% Adobe Illustrator, no Adobe Draw.
Bring one Adobe Illustrator files to class or upload it to the Google Drive folder.
