Mary Kate McDevitt
For my artist talk I hose to dive into McDevitt’s portfolio as her style and type work captured my attention the most due to its geometric and bold shapes and felt it is bet shown in this type illustration made for the holidays. Unlike most holiday postcards and art work it uses a subversive color palette outside of the common Red green and white and using sublite design elements like snowflakes that look like stars, and uses type that crosses the line of retro and modern for today’s audience.
The off primary colors certainly add a twist to the stereotypical holiday colors, Paola.
