Challenge
My friends over at Layer-Lab, wanted me to letter the phrase ‘Sex & Candy’ and use that piece to create a fictional magazine cover using their isolated png images. The purpose, obviously, were to show how easy it is to create stunning artworks with Layer-Lab and their images.
Solution
First step was to sketch the phrase with pencil and paper to find an interesting composition. Once that was done, I vectored the lettering. After that I used the high-resolution and isolated (i.e. transparent background) images from Layer-Lab to create the artwork. By choosing the same light (you choose between natural, sunlight or classic light) it was a piece of cake to match them together. If you do not have a full-size photo studio (like me) Layer-Lab converts my computer to digital playful studio. The images are so easy to use; just open the images and paste them into your artwork. Since all the images have transparent background it makes it very easy to combine them together and create wonderful stuff.
One big advantage is the number of different images of the same object. Take the nerd candy for example, there are a lot of different angels and sizes that makes it possible to create larger stuff without anybody spotting any duplicates or repeating patterns. Another advantage is the quality, the images has been isolated with care for details. What are you waiting for? Go to Layer-Lab.com and start creating!
We are very happy with the collaboration, so thanks again for the lettering and graphic design work. It is like everything you touch is artistically precise and beautiful!”
