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.
This week we have a really cool wallpaper created by Ee Venn Soh, a digital artist and illustrator from Johor Bahru, Malaysia with a really impressive portfolio. You can check more of his work out at http://www.behance.net/vennsoh.
Also if you want to have your wallpaper featured in our wallpaper of the week send us your wallpaper or suggestions for wallpapers.
