Back again with yet another update. I guess I have been up to a few things lately. A few weeks back a coworker was showing me how other magazines are using illustrations and page layouts, which we both felt would be interesting to use in Harrisburg Magazine and any other publications we might produce. Granted, we can't go too wild and crazy on certain ideas, since budget is always a factor, but one thing that I did bring up was that I hoped to try my hand at more illustration work in the magazine, if needed and/or wanted. A few days later our Publeditor (yes, that's her title) asked me if I could do an illustration based around a concept she found online. I created it and we kept pushing it more and more until it became a giant tsunami. The original idea for the illustration became secondary to the huge wave about to engulf it. Either way, I learned a few tricks in Photoshop that day and got a nice chance to flex my muscles creatively in a whole new way!
