Flying home from the conference I attended, I had no internet access (what did we do before there were digg.com and email to kill time?) and I had already finished my book. For a project I had in mind, I needed a ship graphic in .eps format. So I played around in Illustrator and drew a ship.
But then I realized I needed the image to be small, so this was too busy. Plus the lines weren't straight (I didn't have my beloved Wacom pad to draw on). So when I got home, I tried again.
This one I think looks cleaner, the proportions are better, and the overall image will scale down with more clarity.
Yay for creative outlets. Now if only I can squeeze in time to finish the project I needed the ship for...
wow---I have no idea how you did that, but it is pretty amazing. Next time I need a logo or image for my blog, I am definitely writing you an email. :)
ReplyDeleteDear Melinda,
ReplyDeleteHi! It's Caroline! I know that this is random, but Mama Lou send me this website and I decided to check it out!
That boat is awesome.
Oh, by the way... I read the section below- i agree. You are special! :-) This is also random- do you know what internet "trolling" is? I hear the term alot. See you in Oklahoma (or sooner!):-)
One last thing- I have to go by "Anonymous." I don't seem to fall under any other catergory.
thanks for your comment! it's funny that we've been hitting the same cities, I actually live outside of boston now! I like this graphic a lot, can I offer one small thought? something about the proportions make it look like it's both heading towards me AND away from me. but maybe it's just me and my eyesight!
