Beginners in Illustrator

Illustrator is brilliant for editing and creating almost anything. Before I discovered Illustrator, I was always a huge fan of Photoshop, but strongly disliked that the graphic would lose it's quality when scaled up or down. I found out that Illustrator is a vector based software, and won't lose it's quality when scaled. I think everyone in graphic design should learn how to use Illustrator at one point in their life. If they are like me, they might find that prefer it better than Photoshop. Here's some tips for beginners:

Unfinished Life

I find the search for lines, colors, shapes, forms, textures, values and space absolutely fascinating. Why do we have to finish an art piece…perhaps it is best we don’t. Maybe we should want people to understand and see what the artist saw, layers. Dimension. What if we let the person viewing the art focus on dimension? What is unfinished, is art? Is that it? No, art is supposed to make you feel…and life is never finished. So like art, I follow life.

Sincerely,
The reason why my  portrait isn't done
