Carolina Torres

I found Carolina Torres in the June 2011 issue of Computer Arts and think her illustrations are gorgeous! Her illustrations are abstract, but bring everything to life using simple lines, a great color palette, textures she uses on different parts of the illustrations, and techniques in Illustrator I would never think to use. One of her tutorials is using transparency, which can be seen in the light beams from the moon and the glisten in the waves. I'm going to be working on this tutorial and, hopefully, applying this to more of my illustrations. The image on the top-left is the result of the tutorial.

You can find more of her work on her website here.
