I’ve been into textures lately. I think it makes vector illustrations more interesting. I’ve been trying to incorporate hand-drawn textures in my illustrations little by little. In this garden scene, I added a bit of texture to the background. Unfortunately, you won’t see it in the final printed illustration (damn!). You’d be able to see it though in the vector image below.

Too bad the textures weren’t shown. Why was it changed? 🙂
I think it just got cropped! Anyhow, it’s just a small portion of the background. 🙂
