Illustrator effects demonstration with pen tool art style.

 

This effect on the the strawberry is not as effective as i planned but it has the desired effect, and it has a nice stylized feel to it.

Fruit

Pen tool drawing of some fruit, its been a while since I used the pen tool.

What it says on the tin.

This Illustrator image in terms of execution is exactly the same as the orange bananas Illustrator image

Michael Craig Martin bananas.

I started off by selecting the image I wanted to use, then in illustrator I traced around the bananas with the paint brush tool, after grouping the image together I filled it with color and finally added the plastic bag background edited with illustrator to be more abstract and the black border focuses the eye onto the main area.

I then imported it into Photoshop and saved it as a jpg.

Moss on wall Photograph (photoshop edit light/contrast/exposure)

The depth of field in this photograph gives it a quality that you're eye cannot see, the reason for this is that the human eye constantly adjusts and compensates for light depth and so on, depth of field is not something you normally notice.

Brick photograph (photoshop light/contrast edit)

Simple editing that gives the photo a new and interesting quality.

Skyrim statue, graphite and pencil.

A simple plastic bag scan.

Today I scanned different textures and materials, this is the first scan that I took, this plastic bag has a simple but elegant water effect.

Julian Opie and me.

This a little Photoshop image of some fruit that I created, it was inspired by Julian Opie's style of work.

Is CG artwork too good at captureing reality.

Some CG artwork can capture the likeness of a person almost, too well, and although not everyone in the world can create these types of art forms, the experts that create entire CG worlds or CG animations are almost never heard of.

What do you think?

 Should the artists behind things like Deus Ex have more recognition?
