Gr. 10 Comp / iRAP Stained Glass Still Life Project

This innovative project seamlessly merges traditional still-life representation with a modern twist, fusing the precision of vector graphics in Adobe Illustrator with the rich, textured aesthetic of a bitmap stained glass effect created in Photoshop. The objective is to reimagine classic still-life scenes through a digital lens, bringing together the meticulous details of vector art and the vibrant, translucent allure of stained glass.

The process involves meticulously crafting the still-life elements using Illustrator’s vector tools, ensuring crisp lines and precise shapes. The choice of objects, their arrangement, and the overall composition will draw inspiration from classical still-life themes while incorporating a contemporary edge.

Once the vector illustration is complete, the project takes a captivating turn as it moves to Photoshop. Here, a sophisticated stained glass effect is applied to the composition, introducing a dynamic interplay of light and colour reminiscent of traditional stained glass windows. This technique will infuse the artwork with a unique luminosity, transforming the digital canvas into a virtual stained glass masterpiece.
