Giraffe

Love Bob Staake's work ("stack"). Was looking at some of his stuff yesterday, and came across a couple videos of him making a couple illustrations. I loved his method of creating shapes, and decided to play a bit with that. While I was still pretty fidgity with my lines, creating shapes this way was a lot of fun. While he uses Photoshop 3 (!), a fact I find way cool, his creating shapes by cutting into shapes with other shapes method works well in other programs too. My program of choice is Inkscape.

I made my own video, built with screen shots of most of the steps of the process.

For the videos of Bob Staake illustrating, see the bottom of this post.
