One of the new features of Pixelmator 2 is the vector tools. You can create primitve shapes like rectangles, triangles, ellipses and edit them like in Illustrator or using paths in Photoshop. I decided to give it a try and create a poster using some impossible structures like Escher.
So in this tutorial I will show you how to create a poster using the vector tool in Pixelmator mixed with some textures and basic painting tools. The whole process won't take you more than 45 minutes and I am sure you will like the outcome.
The wallpaper of this week is the first of 2012 and it is to celebrate the new year that has arrived. We wish you all an amazing 2012 with a lot new challenges and new experiences. The idea of this image is to make us all think that the best way to be successful in the future is by doing our best now in the present.
Happy 2012 y'all :)
