Illustrator Drawing

December 2007

I decided to take a picture of my girlfriend and I and convert it into an illustration using Illustrator and my tablet.

I’m a bit of a hopeless romantic, so I decided to design this illustration and give it to my girlfriend for her laptop wallpaper. This was actually my first attempt at an illustration of real objects, so it definately was a challenge. Using my tablet, I was able to hand draw all of the lines and tweak the lines as I saw fit. When looking at the real picture, you can see that the illustration wasn’t that far off - not bad for a first attempt.
