Design and illustration guru Von Glitschka needs little introduction. The creative director of boutique design firm Glitschka Studios – which counts the likes of Nike, Disney and SXSW Interactive among its varied clientele – is a master of vector art and has a global following.
He’s also the creative mastermind behind our popular DragStrip and DragStrip 2 vector brush packs for Adobe Illustrator, as you might already know.
What you probably don’t know, though, is that with these Illustrator brushes Von created a new style of vector-based illustration, which quickly caught the attention of Adobe and led to a collaboration with the world’s biggest creative software company: Painted Jungle illustration.
If that isn’t a clear indication of the value of experimentation – no matter how established you are as an illustrator or designer – then we don’t know what is!

Hey Todd and Dameon! Thank you so much for the awesome feedback. It’s been about a year since we’ve released this pack and it’s been really cool seeing the awesome work people have created with these brushes!

Can’t say enough about Von’s brushes. I sketched a cartoon lion and used these brushes to turn my regular vector animal into an “acrylic” painted masterpiece (Well, to me at least). It takes alot of experimenting, but once you get it going, it really becomes fun. I love that it gives me one more element to use while staying firmly in my beloved Adobe Illustrator. Thanks Von, Dustin and Co.!
