Fruit



For an assignment we were to trace a pear using the pen tool.  In addition to the pear I create a watermelon.

Exact Magazine Copy








For our assignment we were to duplicate a already made magazine spread to perfection.

Magazine Fold

 Fold 1

Fold 2

(This is just an extra one for fun!)

The assignment was to create a 3 page magazine fold that looked professional.  We were to pick a topic and build the spread around that.

Ai Final: Sex and the City Characters



For the Illustrator final project, we were to design out own form of trading cards.  I decided to take the characters from the television show, Sex and the City, and turn them into cartoons.

Character: Charlotte York
Actress: Kristin Davis

  Character: Carrie Bradshaw

Character: Miranda Hobbes
Actress: Cynthia Nixon

Export Ai to PS

This was the image after designing in illustrator.

 This is the image after reworking it in Photoshop.


For an assignment, we were to make a shape in Illustrator using tools in the program to design the shapes and change the colors.  Once we finished up there, we moved the file to Photoshop to add in effects.

Line Work








It is extremely important to understand how the pen tool in Illustrator works.  For practice the class traced over lines using the pen tool.  We then played with different strokes and colors to add to make it look more fun!
