Digital Art - Black Dog (my first illustrator creation)

Hi !

As a photoshop user, I am used to do some retouching to my photos, as well as creating digital art. Just learned by myself how to use it, and improved over time. Lately I've been creating more and more digital art, and I wanted to try a more flexible tool, that would help me to improve my art. I checked out Adobe Illustrator, and to my surprise, you can download the official version and use the full and latest release for 30 days. Now, I was so excited and wanted to work with it right away, but... I realized that I have to learn a lot of new features and elements. Luckily my photoshop experience helped a little bit, but yet... there was a lot to learn, I felt like a beginner, it was like learning a new language, oh well...

Been searching youtube and found this series of tutorials for beginners that are helpful and funny, if you are doing your first steps on illustrator, you should check it out... Jream Tutorials

My first attempt to create something in illustrator, was rather good for a first try. Take a look at my previous post and find the black dog. I decided to vectorize it! just for fun.

Take a look :



I was happy with the result so I decided to print it on a shirt :)

Take a look :




I like this shirt! it looks like a dog with a lion complex :)

That's it for today, I'll keep you posted with my new creations very soon.
As always you are welcome to visit my online store or my portfolio on "The Untapped Source".

Have a wonderful day !
