This is my 3rd project out of 9. From here on I’m most likely to produce vector like images, despite this assessment is extended towards friday. I still appreciate its details in it’s geometrical form. I am still going for surrealism but not in its typical medium of a painting style.
I think it’ll be much more easier to produce art in illustrator rather than photoshop. I am still experimenting, but I find that illustrator is like a simplified version of photoshop.
In my dorm there’s 2 giant palm trees outside my window, and thought of a pun. I thought it would be hilarious to just put a hand and a tree together to make a palm tree. It sounded a lot funnier in my head…

I played a lot with the colour theory, whether to go with either the top row. The blue and pastel yellow drawing in the middle captured my attention a lot more than the others did.

I used multiple hands to draw on. I wanted to add my own style, so I used low poly shapes; draw by the pen tool. *More references linked at the bottom. I liked the thermal colour palette as it really popped out from the blue; it also had a cool effect on the low poly shapes. I had to draw my own palm trees with custom leaves as there weren’t many good picture I wanted on a palm tree.

I’d say the most helpful tools in the process would be:

-pen
-opacity
-layers

I’m starting to understand how these layers work in illustrator, it’s just knowing what part of the picture goes where and to not make sure it won’t overlap each other.
