About This Class
In this course, I will be teaching you one of my favorite workflows for adding custom textures and depth of field to your flat illustrations. I will teach you how to start in adobe illustrator with your vector illustration, separate your layers so they will be easy to work with when texturing, and save a compatible file from Adobe illustrator to photoshop.
Using texture and depth of field has done wonders for my illustration. It really can make the difference between bored and excited reactions to any illustration, no matter how detailed. I love this process that I will be teaching you and it is one of the easiest and most customizable workflows I have ever used.
