Illustration - Week 1 - Day 2

We began the day refreshing on the technique we had learnt in the previous lesson. On top of this we incorporated illustration by building our pieces around a set word, mine being "Soar". As we had decided on what things resembled this word before starting our pieces, I incorporated the themes of:
Pastel colours, flying, elegance, simple and movement.
 
 
To experiment with another illustration technique we created templates of the birds and cut them out of coloured paper. This created a block colour silhouette of the bird which looked quite nice in contrast with another colour. Although I wouldn't use this technique again, it was interesting to explore and I liked the composition of the end result.
