I believe that one of the most important talents to have as an illustrator/graphic designer is the ability to look deeper into your subject matter. As a graphic designer i gravitate towards wanting to simplify my subjects. To help train this ability i often practice reinterpreting subjects from their details into more simple forms.
I sometimes have to break away from vector work to remind myself of the joys of where it all started. I have however observed a very mathematical or structured influence to my work lately. An influence from vector work perhaps?
