January 31st

Last class we continue to practice our use of illustrator and you created a simple scene with rolling hills, a sky, tree, and possibly a simple character.

Today we are going to take our illustrations a step further and I'd like you to design your own cartoon character. For some inspiration, search "vector animal cartoon" into google images-they must be vectors!

I'll give you a brief demonstration on some new tools and then I'd like you to create your own. You will submit this to your blog for a mark so please do your best. You should also have your character placed in a background setting so consider the content.

You may use:
-pen tool
-shape tools
-blob brush
-paint brush
-gradients
-any other illustrator tool that you can find to experiment with.


If you finish early and upload your jpeg to the blog, try recreating a famous character in illustrator.
