Rhonda Voo


For My info graphic assignment I chose the illustrator Rhonda Voo. I found her technique very interesting and simple to recreate. The way she creates all of her images is through cutting paper to make scenes with the shapes. They way i'm planning to recreate this in illustrator is to trace the piece and use a drop shadow to emulate the cut paper effect.


This is my final reproduction of the illustration by Rhonda Voo. I used the pen tool primarily, and I utilized the drop shadow effect to make it look like cut paper.

Graphs

Today we worked on graphs and charts in Graphic Design 2. I experimented with gradients and colors, and played with type a little. I'm finding I'm needing to work on color schemes.

Travel Posters

For my travel poster I chose to do Ireland. This wasn't a hard choice for me, because I've been there 6 times and I'm considering going back there for a 7th visit this summer, so I know quite a lot about the culture and the different sights to see. Here is my word list...


My colors will be green (of course) and possibly a grey, I'm eating to work in more muted vintage tones. My favorites so far are numbers 1, 4, 5, 7, and 9.




For my further direction I've chosen green, blue, and brown for my color pallet. Here is a tighter sketch for my travel poster.


This is the finished product for my travel poster.
