Museum of Illustration



  I really enjoyed the trip to the museum we took. I found David Curtis’s story very inspiring and I at times found myself super interested in his work, I like how he took us step by step and then let us try what he does. The idea of being able to make book covers honestly sounds pretty fun. For the book cover exercise I chose Percy Jackson and I tried to emphasize the water and the lightning due to the fact that Percy Jackson is the son of Poseidon who is the god of the seas. Zeus also plays a big part in the book so I made sure to add lightning.i would grade my book cover a 3/4 although I don’t portray the artistic skills necessary, I feel like I had the right idea and I actually really liked my idea. I honestly thought the museum was kinda small I wish it was bigger but because it’s small it allows more emphasis on each piece and doesn’t overwhelm the visitor. My favorite art piece was the one on the first floor which showed footballer Kylian Mbappe and they called him the hero of France. I liked the piece because I’m a big fan of soccer and i in some ways idolize kylian mbappe

 Im so glad we are no longer using indesign. Using illustrator taught me how easy adobe apps should be to use. I learned a lot of new tools like the [paintbrush tool and during this project i also used grouping and locking layers quite a lot. I love illustrator and i honestly hope we stop using indesign, recreating my work from last year was honestly so fun.

Logo Development

25 PENCIL ROUGHS     Sketching rough drafts for my company’s logo in my notebook was a surprisingly rewarding part of the design process. There’s something about putting pen to paper that helps ideas come out more freely. Without the pressure of making everything perfect, I felt more comfortable playing around with different shapes, lettering styles, and concepts that could represent the brand. Some ideas came quickly—little sparks from thinking about what the company stands for—while others took more time to figure out. What I liked most about this stage was how flexible it felt. I could cross things out, circle parts I liked, or draw several versions of the same idea in a row. The notebook became a messy but useful space where creativity wasn’t limited. It also gave me the chance to think more deeply about what kind of message the logo should send—should it feel modern and bold, or simple and timeless?Even though these early sketches were rough, they helped lay the found...
