Ok, this is a piece of art that I made last spring using a plasma cutter. The gorilla image is a tracing from some photo then photo copied, scanned and then printed out, spray mounted to an old screen door panel and the cut out with the plasma cutter.
Would I claim I drew the gorilla? No. Did I create art? Yes.
I guess my problem with this vector tracing thing is when people who trace photos then claim they are illustrators. (and I don't mean you brooke, you spicy little bezier beauty...).
Taking a photo, tracing the silhouette and filling it with a gradient does not make you an illustrator. A Graphic Designer, yes.
