Drawing With Your Mac: Vector Illustration Software

By , About.com Guide   September 2, 2010

Follow me on:

When we think of vector illustration software, Adobe Illustrator is usually the first software to come to mind. That, or maybe Inkscape. But there are plenty of other quite affordable and pretty nifty options out there. Check out some Mac Illustration Software to go with your Mac Desktop Publishing Software.

Hi, It’s great to draw with a Mac, but it’s also important to have some sort of drawing tablet. (LIke the Wacom ones). I know people who couldn’t live without their tablet! After you get used to it, you can find your freehand drawing really takes off. :)

Agreed re: tablets. I don’t use mine as much as some folks and often go back and forth between pen and mouse but for drawing a tablet/pen definitely helps. Much more natural.
