In this multimedia project, I created an illustration of my own photo using Affinity Designer. I used Affinity Designer because it has useful tools for creating digital illustrations and vector artwork. The purpose of this project was to learn how to use the software and improve my design skills.
I made the illustration by using vector shapes. First, I imported my photo into Affinity Designer as a reference. Then I traced the main objects such as the person, rocks, trees, and mountains using the Pen Tool and other vector tools. I also used layers and simple colors to make the illustration look clean and similar to the original photo.
This project was quite difficult because every part of the illustration had to be created manually. It took a lot of time, patience, and attention to detail. Creating the vector shapes and choosing the right colors was challenging, but I learned many new skills and became more confident in using Affinity Designer for digital illustration.
