My own swan pattern inspired by celtic heritage as well as the story on The Children of Lir.

I started off by getting the rubber tooll and clearing out any lines not needed.

I got the line tool and drew the basic shape of my chosen outfits. I then got the rubber tool again and rubbed the white out inthe inside of the garment designs.

I then got my line tool and started drawing on a feather inspired pleated skirt to the right.

I selected the wand tool and thenthe paint tool to colour the skintone in.

I added an image layer were i added the pattern in.

I got the line tool and started drawing the shoes. I then selected the wand tool and rubbed out the skintone so as i could get the pattern coming through.

I started doing some touchups and going over outer lines.

Finally i selected the burn and dodge tools to add tone and sading to these illustrations.

Final Outcome

I really enjoyed doing this collection. It help me paractice my shading and toning as well visually see how shapes might and might not work. The outcome was a success and i decided to not add abackground as i thought it would take away from the two girls garments. I rwally enjoyed using the line tool as it gives you a great equal outline.
