I'm illustrating homes and have seen both object clipping and patterns used for backgrounds, such as illustrated brick or roof shingles.ย I'm wondering if anyone can give me advice on which they feel would be a preferable way to handle this issue, clipping the object or setting it as a pattern for a bg?ย And possibly, the benefits or differences between the two.ย I've seen both options used and recommended, so I was a little unsure how to proceed.ย Thank you!
It's handy to use pattern when you need an element that is repeated in multiple designs. Clipping is best when it comes to element specific to the artwork you are doing.
But could you indicate a link to these arts, so I can have a better idea?
