Hey all,

With the holiday season upon me and only a very limited budget in my wallet, I've decided that for part of my holiday gifts to my friends and family, I am creating vector images. They will be used for different things, like xmas cards or might frame some of them with a poem or inspiring quote.

I am doing this to set a goal for myself: improve my vector art and pen tool abilities.

This is the first one I've done, what do you think of it? The good/bad, etc.

I first used an image to create a sketch using my tablet and then vectorized the sketch.

Looks good. You could try using different brushes in illustrator to see if you can create any cool effects with the lines, unless you want to keep it simple, of course.

Thanks for your comments, I'll check into the idea for different brushes.

I'm actually using a Toshiba R15 tablet pc
