"He who marches out of step hears another drum." ~ Ken Kesey
I "create" the artwork for around half of my prints, and I mean from start to finish, usually based on nothing more than something like "It needs to say "xxxxx" and I want it to have xxxxx imagery" or sometimes even "go wild!". Sometimes I do simple text with something like tweaked "clipart" (pick a font, pick a central image, add some extra elements, and make it all look nice together). Sometimes it is wholly original, whether that is hand illustrated or using the pen tool etc (often this is for clothing brands or new companies, and can range from logo creation/branding to abstract ideas and imagery). Most of the time is somewhere in between. I could post process stuff here I guess for some of those types of jobs, but honestly I rarely document the process.Generally speaking, what would qualify as something worth posting in this subforum? Does it need to be wholly hand illustrated, then penned in illustrator and colored, etc like all of the posts I see currently? Would something like using fonts, even if tweaked, negate the art? Is graphic design not art?
