The second assignment was to illustrate our first week back. Over a two page spread in our sketchbooks, we each personalized the pages with detailed images illustrating the events of our first week into the new semester. The inspiration for this layout, was chosen from the Marie Claire February 2010 Issue.
The pages are painted with black ink, creating images to portray the events of my first week. The pages speak to each other as the middle of the page illustrates my biggest adventure. The outline of the plane draws the eye to the center of the page. As your eye is drawn to the center, it is curious to find more. To follow the story line, the eye naturally reads left to right. My story begins with the simplistic outline of New Jersey. The images overlap one another portraying that of a pathway. My pathway continues with the images of a passport, wallet, plane, clock, the state of North Carolina, ending my story with an open vintage suitcase. The text layout is similar to that of the magazines. The bold words are lyrics from songs I related to my first week back. For my weeks to come, the pen line does not end, as each blank page of my sketchbook paints the mood and events of my day.
