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 an image created by, a 19-year-old Dutch digital artist studying graphic design in Amsterdam, with hopes of moving on to an advertising agency or into the world of freelancing when finished.
Kevin likes to experiment with different graphic effects on photographed subjects and in particular using Cinema 4D to make 3D objects, light effects and renders.

The book suggestion of this week is really interesting especially for us designers that have to reach audiences with our work by trying to understand their needs. The book is called 50 Psychology Classics: Who We Are, How We Think, What We Do; Insight and Inspiration from 50 Key Books.
