Sketches
“I love it! I was wondering, if you have a chance, could you use your creative magic wand and design my post card?”
HAND MADE IS NICE
Just a page of some sketches. Sometimes a hand-drawn image is just the thing to help convey a friendly, unique and personal touch.
PENCILS & VECTORS
However, many designs often begin with pencil and paper. Even when I know that a vector drawing is going to be the final version, sketching is a valuable part of the initial creative process and idea exploration.
DIGITOOLS ARE COOL
Gradually, I’ll be doing more exploratory sketching with digital tablet and pencil too. These technologies are slowly becoming more intuitive to an illustrator, and also more affordable…
FIRST THINGS FIRST
Pencil sketches might be the first thing you see from me as we work together to narrow down the design direction before I take it to my digital tools.
AN OLD FRIEND
On the subject of sketching, I can’t help but share a link to Ben Hodson, Illustrator - an inspiring, dear friend of mine since I was 10 years old.
