Tristan asked me to create infographic for his article “How to build your own Silicon Valley and keep your soul”.
1. Sketch, forms and colors
2. Elements and lines for coloring
3. Arrows, texts and shadows on mountains
Here's a short story of the working process. Tristan contacted me to create three illustrations for his article about startups. We discussed his vision for the project, and he provided me with three references and a timeline. After four days of work, I shared the first sketches with him. We went through two rounds of revisions and made a few small adjustments to finalize the illustrations.
Not green. Final.
Green. In Pinwheel style.
