Simon Vaeth

Jule Hjerter time! Making some christmas decorations with my cousin (post some pics soon). 

While searching for some templates this morning I came across this artist, Simon Vaeth and absolutely fell in love with his illustrations. 

His blog and website. 

Christmas

My friends and family always give me cards for Christmas so I thought I'd make some for them.  

It was also a great opportunity to work with Illustrator. Took a long, long time, but I learned so much.

 The card in print didn't come out as I wanted. It seemed a bit plain, so I painted a border. It didn't help. Anyways, it wasn't too bad so I sent it anyways.

Hopefully they will be happy with it.

Being inspired by Pinterest, I thought of decorating a jar and making it a candy jar for someone. 

First stages:

 

Old work

Used a photograph and played around with textures and shapes. 

 It was all done in Photoshop. 

This was another personal piece for World Mental Health day (10 October). 

 Again, playing with textures using Photoshop.
