Hey, my name is Sharon Milne and I go by the moniker ChewedKandi. I have a passion for vector art and have been creating digital art portraits and illustrations for the past decade. I’m self taught in the programs I use and especially love teaching others the benefits and wonders of Adobe Illustrator. All the vector work I produce is 100% vector with no raster effects.
I now write tutorials and articles for sites such as VectorTuts+ and produce a variety of pieces for commercial and private clients.
The wallpaper of this week is concept art created by Justin Maller for Nike Kobe Bryant. The artwork mixes a photo of Kobe with abstract 3D renders and photos of snakes. It reminds me the Medusa from the new Clash of the Titans movie.
The book suggestion of this week is about branding and it's a recommendation from one of our favorite graphic designers out there, Roger Oddone. The book is called Designing Brand Identity: An Essential Guide for the Whole Branding Team and it covers everything you need to know about branding, from its definition to how come up with the most efficient strategy.
