I’ve started using Affinity Designer for digital drawing and illustration. Thus far, I really like it. This one’s a reproduction of one of my food photographs – a lemon tart with whipped cream.
The image was surprisingly challenging. I would have never guessed that drawing digital whipped cream would require so much time and nuance. And trying to capture the white porcelain plate, and stainless steel fork was a challenge.
Somewhere along the way, the project morphed into a summer-themed, fake magazine cover. Creating the plaid table cover was fun.
Ultimately, I’m happy with how it turned out. Much better than I though and I learned a few tricks.
