My first (very basic) Illustrator drawing - Other Crafts

Man, I first started messing around with Illustrator in 99 and it got me SO frustrated I hardly used it. It is very counter-intuitive to an old school pencil pushing artist like me. Through the years, though, it has become my favorite for digital illustrating, and I often go to it first over Photoshop and my other fave Painter 9. You can see a handful of illustrator created do-dads on my website - a bamboo example (tho not a cool as yours!): My best advice with Illustrator is the more you stick with it, the more you get to love it! VanTiki PS: Sam Gambino - I just picked up your Tiki Farm Shrunken head mug over the weekend. Soooooo coooool! :) [ Edited by: VanTiki 2006-05-30 18:05 ]
