SB3 | Refining Ideas

Following the tutorial I knew I needed to cut down the number of concepts I had, and refine them into a more harmonious set of images that would work across the formats.

Here's what I came up with:

Poster (top left) Postcards (middle) Stamps (bottom)

I felt that these roughs would act as a good basis for finished outcomes. I was fairly pleased with the layout of each, and I thought that stylistic things such as colour and how I went about line would help to draw them together further.

The poster depicts Hughes' isolation from the world, looking out from behind blinds.

hand washing (alternatives)

peas (alternatives)

The postcards focus on order and disorder. Repetitive hand washing, plane crash debris set out in a (relatively) organised way, peas all lined up on a plate except for one.

The stamps are based on the thumbnail drawings I did previously. I liked their unusual layouts and how they honed in on small details of specific moments. It's like carding through a photo album to get a sense of a person.
