Today I want to share something a little different from my ordinary digital painting. As some of you may know, I have a very strong design background and worked in the world of commercial design (graphic design) for many years early in my career. My specialty becomes brand design and logo design. With that, I can master vector graphics and then apply them to my fine arts. This section, Bahama Breeze, was one of my first explorations into my VectorArt which created the full image of the vector form. Like all my artworks, I use reference photos, but the whole is an original composition with no "photo filters". This process is very different from my digital painting and basically I create thousands and thousands of small shapes that when viewed from afar looks like the actual picture.
The difference between the vector and raster graphs is the raster graphic consists of pixels, whereas the vector graph consists of paths. Raster graphics, such as gif or jpeg, are pixel circuits of various colors, which together form an image. Vector graphics, such as an Adobe Illustrator .eps file or file, consist of lines, or lines, that are straight or curved. The data file for the vector image contains the point at which the start and end paths, how many path curves, and the color that borders or fills the path. Since vector graphics are not created from pixels, images can be scaled to very large without loss of quality. The raster graph, on the other hand, becomes "blocky", because each pixel gets bigger because the image is made larger. This is why logos and other designs are usually created in vector format - the quality will look the same on the business card as it will be on the billboard.
