Applied Illustration - Roughs

INTENT:
- To design and layout compositions for my final outcomes
- To show different aspects of skin conditions juxtaposed with imagery from flowers and butterflies

HOW:
- By using textured cut paper made in the print room, I was able to play with different compositions quickly and ensure it worked before I stuck it down

WHY:
- I found using a mix of pencil roughs and physically cut paper a great method to actively explore how to create a composition which showed off the shapes both individually and as a whole picture
- I wanted to explore different ways of roughing, as since my project is so much about shapes, I thought it would be best to experiment which cut out shapes
- By using print textured paper, I ensured that my images weren't too flat, and stood off the page
- I wanted to see how I could use layering to juxtapose the colours and textures to highlight the differences in peoples skin

WHAT NEXT:
- Refine designs to include an even amount of elements on each design so that they are cohesive
- Reflect on the composition and refine their placement
- Develop a strong colour palette to unite the designs, but differs to alter mood
