Illustrations can be generated in different ways depending on the software:
- Raster graphics
- Vector graphics
Vector graphics use a mathematical algorithm to translate an image into different points connected using lines and curves. That makes a vector graphic image to be resized/increased without losing quality. The most famous vector format is eps
Raster graphics are made up of pixels. Once a raster image has been created, resizing it to a bigger size will cause the image to loose quality. Also, it generates really heavy file sizes making it more difficult to manage it on a computer. The most famous raster format nowadays is jpg
When is better using Raster to Vector Graphics?
Usually we use Raster graphics with photography because it can manage an amazing range of detail. That’s why files are bigger. Because it has more detail.
If you are searching for a nice and detailed watercolor illustration, go for a raster version. You can find good png collections, as this tasty Dessert cake collection:
