Photo Journal:Illustration of Nigeria Buildings by Tomi Abe (@tomiabe)
Hello Tomi! Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and what you do for a living?
I best describe myself as a multidisciplinary designer because I have hands on experience working on projects related to graphics, web, branding and illustration. I build brands, surf the net and create lots of side projects.
When did you first find yourself seriously getting into graphic illustration?
I had always loved art, I drew a lot when I was much younger, so finding out about adobe illustrator and the magic it could perform was like a new dawn to me. I decided to learn how to use it (especially the pen and pathfinder tool) and experimented a lot with it till I could master it.
Are there any themes or ideas that you’re always drawn to when illustrating?
Yes there are. I try to showcase my work in the very simplest form or manner it can be and I try to pay attention to details, because they count.
