illustration and abstraction

[wind jetty]

Sure! here's some examples from my website

For certain themes and asks like spot illustrations for tech or iconography you don't want to send in a realistic super detailed illustration

Something too realistic and detailed may not scale, or it might just not fit the branding

I think logos fall into this category too (like my personal one)

When you have a basis of understanding in illustration, and have also learned how to abstract things into simpler, but still recognizable, forms it helps!

i get your point

And i would agree, it is rare to see realism being the market choice when it comes to designing. Although 3d realistic designs have been trendy these days~ still

Oh your work is good. It may look simple but i can understand how hard and long you must have worked for it lmao

I think @wind jetty is a professional

yeah I think there's room for realism in certain executions and places, but it tends to be more of an illustrator role than a graphic design role!
