For this illustration, we were asked to create a set of vector illustrations focusing on individual and group photos, and their prominent features. I went through the process of pulling photos from my camera roll and working through a style to outline and create the final image, opting for a flatter look.

PROCESS

To begin this project, I searched my photo library to locate potential options for the series of five illustrations, which I then imported into Illustrator. Following this, I proceeded to outline the key elements of the images, such as the hair, shirt, pants, and any pertinent items, including the jacket, accessories, and phone. To create a more natural-looking line, I utilized the smoothing tool. Afterward, I added additional details to the compositions, such as sunglasses, wrinkles, rings, and other small accessories. Lastly, I applied color to the illustrations using the color picker tool to achieve a cohesive vector feel, making necessary adjustments along the way to ensure a complementary color scheme.

In regards to the pet illustrations, I used a similar approach, utilizing a slightly more abstract outline to highlight the animal's distinctive color patterns. Lastly, I incorporated important details to ensure accuracy and enhance the overall visual appeal.
