Recent works.

Here is a recent poster i did for my design class, its made from soft pastel with additional digital manipulations (lightning, floating objects and Lens flare, typography). I found it hard doing this because the pictures i found of the various "intelectuals" have a different lighting that i would like them to have. i wanted them to have a shadow like the light is coming from beneath their faces. i studied how the light hits the face from below the face, its kinda evident on Einstein and the person in the middle but not the others... Ill study more about how light hits the face later on, but n e one have a quick fact about it? Although i did not like the illustration that much, i liked the concept. The theme is "National Literacy" and my quote is "the road to knowledge begins with a turn of a page. -anonymous". My idea is to have a person read a book and the various "great minds of all times" are standing around him. The book is also held by various hands. In order to be successful, one needs to read books, and thats how we obtain knowledge. Hm... get it? sry im not really good in explaining things lol




This is our poem homework. We were allowed to chose our own quotes and illustrate them in black and white, in any medium. i chose graphite pencil. I chose the poem by Jeff Mondak "Franky the onion and garlic the kid". the text is added in the road in an interesting slanted angle. the text also becomes smaller in perspective...
