Further to my lengthy intro here, I am very pleased to say I'm close to finalising my first design for submission. It is entitled Pavlov's Pluto and will be subbed for the Mickey & Friends challenge.

The design is inspired by a famous psychological experiment in classical conditioning, carried out by Ivan Pavlov (and his dogs). Read about it here if you wish.

I personally feel the design could benefit from a bit of texture to give it more of a vintage feel and a stronger connection to its inspiration (given the experiment was carried out in the 1800s).

Problem is, I'm brand new to designing and am not exactly sure how to apply a texture across all my layers in Illustrator. If someone is willing to give me some tips, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks for your time. Hope you enjoy the design.
