Mohamed Samir is a designer from London, he shared a series of illustrations titled 'The Working Future' where he features 6 types of workers to represent a different group of individuals part of a company. I personally love these, Mohamed have done beautifully to create such an abstract visual look that reminds me of the 80s-inspired Omni Magazines.

Denis Fischer shared an awesome illustration project titled “I am alone”. The project features music, video and illustrations to tell a story. You should definitely check out the original but for this post I’d love to focus on the illustrations, all done in Photoshop with a Wacom Cintiq.

I love learning new things. That was the reason for doing tutorials, I was learning and then sharing what I learned. It helped me evolve as a designer.
