Wedha known as illustrator for “Lupus” a teenager love-story novel, is also well known as the founder of WPAP (Wedha’s Pop Art Portrait) which had been published at Desain Studio (see overview here).

HERE ARE THE STEPS OF HOW I MADE THIS SHAKIRA…

BY TONI AGUSTIAN | POPBOXWPAP.BLOGSPOT.COM
The Requirements: COREL DRAW, I SUGGEST COREL DRAW X5 OR AT LEAST X4 WHICH IS THE SMART FILL TOOL ARE ALREADY AVAILABLE + WITH THE PICKER TOOL IN IT

First, choose the photo you want and bring it to the Corel Draw window, you can use import or just drag the picture to Corel’s window. resize it so fit to the paper template. adjust the brightness and contrast or anything you want to make this picture better. then after you done with all those stuff, lock this picture by “right click –> lock”… and you ready for the next step. (to unlock just right click the locked image and click unlock)
