Tutorials- Adobe Illustrator- Cartoon Yourself!
OK so, lately, I am addicted to all things Adobe… specifically Photoshop and Illustrator, and there is no shortage of awesome tutorials out there for people looking to learn what both have to offer. Today, I’m going to spotllight a tutorial by a fellow blogger, Jennifer Borton.
Jennifer is all about vectors as her blog will detail. It provides a host of excellent tutorials, and all are marked very clearly with their difficulty level. You’ll find everything from creating basic vector illustrations to preparing them for sale to iStock.
The tutorial I chose to do today was one of her beginner tutorials, “Drawing a Face Using Simple Shapes.” It took me a little while to get the hang of it and, admittedly, I had trouble with the hair, but, after several deletions and recreations, I got it to where I like it. I even pulled mine in to Photoshop to try adding a few brushes. Why not right?
If you’re just starting out using Illustrator, this is a fantastic tutorial to test your skills while learning some of the basics of Illustrator. Don’t be afraid to experiment! What do you have to lose? Jennifer’s excellent tutorial can be found here. Check it, and others, out on her wonderful blog and definitely check out her fun portfolio!
Enjoy!!
