Smudges of Creativity

This was our first attempt at creating basic shapes in illustrator. We learned shortcuts and the basic function of most of the tools. We kept it simple and there was no color for the first sketch. 

This next step included starting from scratch and re-creating the basic shapes to get our pencil and can. This time we had to be creative in our color schemes and design. Adding symbols and graphic styles was another skill gained in this step.

This final step included finding two complementary objects and creating them will the skills we had gained. Our work was efficient and creative as we had to do this in a weeks span. We combined our knowledge of shapes and the tools of illustrator to do this.







As a summary we had to come up with our 3 main takeaways from this project; this is what i came up with
1.  Illustrators smart guides are very handy and should always be turned on!
2. There is a tool for EVERYTHING!
3. Creativity is power.
