I really like the work of Julian Opie and have decided to use his style to creat my own art work. Also, instead of using just fruit, I wanted to make it a lot more interesting by including people eating fruit. I think it gives it so much more character, rather than just a simple drawing of an apple.
To create the images, I saved images from google I liked, opened them in photoshop, created a new layer and then traced the images using the brush tool. After the simple outline was done, I used the eyedropper tool on the original images to get the correct colours, and then used the paintbucket tool to fill the image with colour. I used the brush tool again to create a small amount of detail to add a little life to my art work.
I really enjoy working in this style and plan to do a few more, but instead of using images found on google, I'll take some of my own photographs and use those instead; to add a personal feel.
