I started a vector drawing today based on one of the lino prints and cafe drawings I did. I am new to the software so using illustrator is a learning curve, but it is coming along nicely. Hopefully the more I use it the faster I will get, because it is taking a while to complete this piece. The plan is that she will be holding a cup of tea, relating to the mindfulness research that I have done in my project previously, and she will look very relaxed. I want to do more of these, so that I can maybe have a set for my exhibition. The good think about vector drawings is that I can blow them up to any size, making using the digital printer a possibility. I could make them into posters and even frame them!
Also today I finalised my character designs for my A3 print, so I can get printing that ASAP! It will be 4 colours; Orange, yellow, green and dark brown, inspired by the special ramen we had at Wagamamas! They should pay me for all of this advertisement, or at least give me free ramen...
I ended up making the lady look more like the Yubaba lady that I drew at the bus stop, because the original just looked weird to me, and she looked kind of severe, like a harsh wife. I want her to be cute and relaxed looking! The end result looks much more like I planned; A nerdy hipster woman who probably has a million cats, and her husband just lets her because if it wasn't cats she was spending her money on, it would be expensive hand printed silk scarves...
