EDITORIAL ILLUSTRATION

OVERALL PROJECT: READ FULL DESCRIPTION HERE

Using any combination of Pencil, Ink and Digital techniques, create an Editorial illustration for the article / topic of your choice. Projects should be unique and communicate clearly, using the technique of visual metaphor. The illustration must be usable as a magazine cover image, therefore a vertical format is required.

Projects must include 3 limited palate COLOR ROUGHS, and the working palate for the final.
