NIJART MOTHERLAND VILLAS OF THE AMERICAS CONCEPT ART

[D. MARQUIS]

FOR THIS PROJECT- THE GOAL IS TO TAKE THE CONCEPTUAL ART YOU SENT ME FOR THE FIRST IDEA FOR THE VILLAS OF THE AMERICA'S- AND RECREATE THE ARTWORK IN ADOBE ILUSTRATOR. THE FINAL RESULT SHOULD CONVEY A GREAT WAY TO SHARE THE IDEA IN AN IMAGINED ATMOSPHERE.

FIRST- I OPEN THE ORIGINAL IMAGE IN ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR- I BEGIN RECOGNIZING THE SHAPES IN THE PHOTO AND BEGIN MAPPING THEM OUT BY SECTION AND ASSIGN A COLOR CLOSEST TO THE SHAPE.

EVERYTHING IS LAYERS. I NAME EACH LAYER AND BEGIN DETAILING EACH LAYER - BUILDING THE ILLUSTRATION BY EACH LAYER AT A TIME.

BEGIN DETAIL ON OLMEC- CONINUES TO COME TOGETHER

MY NEXT SECTION OF DETAIL IS THE LARGE TREE (CENTER)-EACH LEAF IS HAND DRAWN- TO GIVE A MORE NATURAL LOOK.

IM ALSO BEGINING DETAILS IN THE BACKGROUND INCLDING SKY GRADIENTS, THE MOUNTAIN,GREENERY, ETC. HERE'S A BLUE SKY VERSION ABOVE AND MORE DUSK-ISH BELOW
