Commissioning custom illustrations is always a rewarding process. As a digital artist I use both Procreate, and Adobe Illustrator to create vibrant, detailed artwork based largely on real life imagery. Whether you need artwork for personal projects, branding, or gifts, I’ll work closely with you to create a unique digital rendering for your project.
The illustration process can vary quite a bit by project, but discussing your concept and needs, print requirements, ensuring the final piece meets your expectations. Here are some things to consider:
Raster artwork is pixel based, and although it is digital it often mimics the look and feel of traditional mediums like pencil and paint. Raster artwork excels in capturing subtle details, textures, and variations in color, making it perfect for projects requiring vibrant, creative visuals. You can achieve a beautiful and bespoke feel, even for simple visuals.
This type of artwork does not scale without loss so starting with the correct resolution is important to avoid quality loss when resizing. it is also much harder to make alterations or design changes so revisions to this type of artwork are more time consuming and difficult.
Vector artwork is created using paths, points, and curves rather than pixels. It is entirely math based which allows designs to be infinitely scalable without losing quality. This makes it a good choice for anything that needs to be resized frequently. Unlike raster images, vector files remain sharp and clear. They’re also highly editable, enabling easy color adjustments, resizing, and layer manipulation. You can add grain and texture over top of vector graphics to give them a different feeling, but the underlying graphic can still be easily altered and repurposed.
For anyone needing versatile, professional-grade artwork, vector drawings offer flexibility and precision unmatched by other formats.
