Wandering through Versailles

This is the ticket entrance to the Versailles museum, gardens and grounds. The Sun King theme is all over the interior design but these window decals really caught my eye.

Using iPad artwork for Posters

20121227-222400.jpg
I have a lot of fun using a first-gen iPad to build background imagery for large format printing. In these examples poster color and texture are done using iPad apps at 1024×768 at only 72ppi. The posters are printed at a minimum of 11×17 inches and 300 ppi.

I do the “key” art on paper. The iPad background is exported to Photoshop with the key layer on top. This hides most of the low-res artifacting visible in the iPad art.
