Projects will alternate between each of the different apps (mostly Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator), some will move between apps, and others will touch on how I integrate traditional and digital tools together. I intended this first post to be a dive into a cool project, but realized that before I get down to work in my digital studio, I always\u00a0make sure that it?s set up so I?m able to move quickly, intuitively, and smoothly. It’s the digital equivalent of\u00a0scraping down my palette and squeezing out new paint. Things must be set up properly if you?re going to work smoothly.
