Glass
I like doing line drawings of glass an other objects. Here I've colored it in using Illustrator. I practiced with the Pen tool and learned about clipping masks in this exercise.

Illustration Friday - Voices
Here's another sorry attempt at using Illustrator. I didn't have time to finish it for IF, but I'll post it on my blog here. I used the pen tool to outline the cats, and the gradients to color them in. I'm still working on gradients, I hate the way it works in Illustrator. I think I could make a much better illustration of this in Photoshop. Sometimes I think of trying the same illustration in both programs, just to see what the difference would be, but I don't have time to do that, usually.

Balloon Part 2
This one I did in Photoshop. I like it better than the previous illustration, but it's still pretty terrible. I hope I'm more inspired by next week's topic!

Illustration Friday - Balloon
This illustration is just terrible, another attempt at using Illustrator. I did practice with the Pathfinder tool to try cutting out "shadow" shapes at first, but then decided on using the gradient for a softer look. I hate the gradient tool in Illustrator, it's so non-intuitive. It's hard to get the color into the gradient palette, I end up clicking all over the place trying to figure it out, and waste a lot of time that way.
This was done for Illustration Friday, but I'm so horrified by it that I'm not even going to post it.
