Research through my major project.

I will be researching and testing Procreate and Photoshop Illustrator to find out how to use them. I will learn how to use Alpha Lock, Clipping Mask, Layer Mask and other techniques in Procreate.  I will also research other online editing tools such as: Flipsnack and Wix. I will investigate with all of these programs and make post to show how I have used them and tested  before deciding on the software I will finished my project with. I will learn about colour wheel to enrich my images and make them visually interesting. I will use textures to make my art more alive. I will draw every day to practice and improve skills.

I will research deeply to find more about digital illustrations. I will learn how to create better illustrations for a book. I will use diffrent techniques. I will look for stylistic inspiration. I will focus on character development.
