Basic shapes make a huge difference in the final outcome of the` illustration. This lecture was all about the use of basic shapes and their placements to form a meaningful composition.
Now, how can we decide where to place what shape and which colour should be put in? The answer to this is based on Gestalt’s Principles. Gestalts principles state, how we can arrange the different shapes in order to make it look appealing and to give it a meaning at the same time. There are in all six laws under this principle following which, we can give shape to our thought.
We were introduced to the pen tool which helps in drawing lines and curves and the swatches panel, which helps us to choose the perfect colour to form the perfect composition.
The lecture was all about exploring these basic tools of illustrator and coming up with an illustration of our own.
