gdenby Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I've been transcribing traditional decorative motifs into digital representations for at least a dozen years. A few weeks ago I came across a folder of hand drawn line work and .tif files generated from Corel Draw vector work. As it happened, there was a thread her about duplicating an art nouveau drawing 6 days ago. I started hand tracing one of the better transcriptions I made. Presented here, a color and a vector/node representation of what I did in 10 - 12 hours, a few hours each day. Please give respect to the now anonymous artist who made the original.

Have the book stored on my HD, and worked to about half way thru step 4. At which point it was becoming fairly difficult. S'pose I should finish the lesson.

A_B_C Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Oh no, I didn’t mean to suggest “finishing the lesson” … :D Actually, I find your drawing really great, I just meant to share one of the books I found inspiring. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
