Communication is the key with icons. By their very nature they are suppose to communicate ideas and concepts quickly and easily. This iconic art form has various types of applications such as GUI (Graphic User Interface) and print. GUI icons are pixel based where as print icons are almost always vector based. The style on either type can vary too but the common bond between all icons is simplicity and clarity of communication.

This tutorial will walk you though the process of creating a set of presentation icons for a software company.

Source files are included in this download so you can manually de-construct the icon art and see how it was created.


(Tutorial Includes Notes in both ‘English’ and ‘Español’.)

   Ah yes the fine work from ‘Fire Wheel Design’. I know Josh Williams the owner and one of his employees. Both are amazing icon artists.
