"Merry Christmas and a Chinchillin’ Holiday" illustration by first-year student Rachel L (IDEA Grad 2025)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from IDEA School of Design!

Here’s a digital illustration by first-year student Rachel L (IDEA Grad 2025). For more on Rachel, follow her on Insta @racxxl.

Mark your calendars! Our next Open Studio is Saturday, February 12, 2022!

This is inspired by my chinchilla named Milk, I decided to draw and print these to send to my friends. I initially drew multiple drafts on my sketchbook, then I chose the one I liked the most and rendered layers separately in Clip Studio Paint. After taking IDES 121, it has helped me in the layout of this project. I also learned about how I should format my file for printing (colour settings, bleeds, etc.) thanks to the course.
