Last week I had posted an article about Photoshop Masters, it was really good to see their works and how they used the tool to achieve those amazing effects. I really like the style of some guys there, particularly Adhemas Baptista, Eduardo Recife and Nik Ainley.
Now in this post, I created a really cool design mixing a photo with vector elements using Photoshop (lots of brushes) and Illustrator.
The wallpaper of this week is a very cool illustration created by Anna Anjos, a graphic designer and illustrator from São Paulo, Brazil. Anna started very young creating the internal drawings of her mother's book.
Since her early days she preferred pencils and papers than conventional toys. Her first work was at age 10 where she had the opportunity to create the internal drawings of her mother's book.
We highly recommend that you check out Anna Anjos' website
The book of this week is not a design book per se but it's an incredible book. I have just finished it and I got so much valuable information that can be applied in my day to day job as designer. The book is called Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping--Updated and Revised for the Internet, the Global Consumer, and Beyond by Paco Underhill.
