Design and Illustration of Aereal View Site Plan of the Parc Le Duc Residences, Restaurant, Bar and Swimming Pool as well as the various facilities and electrical and safety information. The plan needed to be very clear and yet remain visually interesting. Also it needed to feature all descriptions in three different languages.
Various icons needed to be created specifically for the POI (Points of Interest) on the plan.
Designer / Illustrator: Ian David Marsden
Client: Parc le Duc

For a project like this attention to the smallest details is vital. As the entire plan was designed 100% as vector graphics it allowed for clear and precise information to be conveyed at any size – resolution independent.
I have just put together a collection of items in my Red Bubble shop featuring some of my artwork and drawings that people often ask me about.
(Like the baguette girl, the Fez Man etc.)

Send me a snapshot or tag me on instagram if you buy something, I would love to see what you got and where you placed it.
I will share some of the images in my blog and my social media as well.

Halloween Monster Drawing Tutorial Videos in Adobe Illustrator
Just in time for Halloween: A brand new series of “How To Draw” videos where I show how I create a basic rough sketch in Autodesk SketchBook Pro software.
>LINK to software
This is what the rough sketch looked like when it was completed:
and then I placed this rough sketch on a template layer inside my Adobe Illustrator document and drew and inked the line art for the three characters, the Jack-O-Lantern pumpkin, the witch/vampire lady and the werewolf.
Finally I also colored the artwork in illustrator using flats and shading and also several gradients.
The final artwork looks like this and is 100% vector art so it has no pixels and can be scaled to any size losslessly.
Follow me along in the following tutorial videos. If you have any questions please post them as a comment under the videos in my YouTube channel and I will try to answer them as quickly as possible.
Also please don’t forget to like my Facebook page to stay updated about new projects and new videos I am uploading. Facebook is also a good way to get in touch with me if you have any questions about what I am doing in these videos.

Still Frame from the video “Smoke 2 Joints” by The Toyes illustrated and animated by Ian David Marsden – www.marsdenillustration.com
