In this tutorial I will show you how to create a stylish retro poster using Pixelamator. We wil play with basic tools and primary colors to do that. The inspiration is from old posters and of course, the master of the De Stijl Piet Mondrian.
This tutorial was originally written for the Pixelmator Learn site, you can see more tutorials I wrote for Pixelmator at http://www.pixelmator.com/learn/
The wallpaper of this week is an image created by Jason Benjamin, a 19 year old graphic design student living in Boston, Massachusetts. Jason is also an intern at Harvard University as a web developer/designer and he takes photos and makes wallpapers whenever he has the chance.
