From Photo to Vector:
Realistic Art in Adobe Illustrator
Role / Tools: Digital Artist, Adobe Illustrator
Objective: Transform real photography into detailed, lifelike vector art that merges realism with stylized design.
Approach: Used advanced gradient mesh and layering techniques to recreate texture, shadow, and dimension—balancing technical precision with artistic vision.
Deliverables: Series of original vector artworks inspired by personal photography.
This process refined my attention to micro-detail—something I carry into UI refinement and product design reviews.
