ABOUT

These pieces serve as the primary visual identity for my freelance design practice, Design Marie, and a web developer I collaborate with often.

The goal was to create scalable, high-impact avatars for social media profiles and websites. They translate our real-life likenesses into clean, modern vector assets that build instant professional credibility online.

Here is a look at the technical Illustrator skills that brought them to life:

Advanced Pen Tool Work: I crafted clean, intentional paths with minimal anchor points so the artwork scales perfectly to any size.

Complex Layering: I strategically organised highlights, mid-tones, and deep shadows to give the flat illustrations realistic depth.

Custom Colour Swatches: I developed a cohesive, brand-specific palette fully optimised for vibrant digital screens (RGB).

Shape Builder Efficiency: I merged and subtracted overlapping geometry to ensure a flawless, airtight vector construction.
