ATTEBERRY
Kevan Atteberry
Illustrator & Photoshop
For his “Frankie Stein” series of illustrated children's books, Atteberry uses Illustrator
to create the basic illustration, and then moves into Photoshop to add textures and
special effects. He carefully constructs his layers in Illustrator to make sure that he
can work freely and easily in Photoshop, taking advantage of Photoshop's unique
way of creating original artwork. In this illustration (spread over two pages), he
prepared his Illustrator layers to use filters, Layer Styles, and Photoshop's soft,
feathered brushes. He did this by ensuring the elements that would receive the
same treatment in Photoshop were kept on different layers from other elements. See
the “
Ready to Export
” lesson earlier in this chapter for more about layer
organization.
