The portfolio review this week was enlightening to say the least. I take pride in everything I do. This is especially true since the Roll On covers. Admittedly, I'm still learning how to take criticism, so I went through a bunch of emotions going through my critiques.
One of the more common remarks I received was not having enough variety in the pieces I brought to the review. I definitely agree with that. I did forget a few pieces I have done over the past year that would dispute that. I really have fallen in love with Illustrator this semester. No doubt about that. I've heard Theresa say before Illustrator is the most powerful application for a designer. I know what she means now. With that said, Photoshop is my next quest. The next portfolio review we have, there will definitely be some more photo driven work.
When you write about Illustrator, it sounds like you are writing a love letter to Adobe! I think it is great that you are really learning the inter-workings of that program.
