The Vector Landscapes

For the last year Steve has been experimenting with vector based illustrations in Adobe Illustrator. Combined with his unique digital drawing style and the ability to layer thousands of shapes it has provided an apt technique for Steve’s digital illustrations of the outdoors. This initial collection is a visual diary inspired by Ontario’s Algonquin Park. Printed on clear acrylic and framed with simple white float frames.
