OUIL402 Study Task 3 - Context

Context
Jessalyn Aaland - I really love the bold bright colours of this screen printed zine by Jessalyn Aaland. The busy background really contrasts with the simplistic white type, meaning that the image isn't too messy, or overpowering, it just creates this really pleasing, striking aesthetic.

Martina Paukova - I think the colours in this piece of illustration work really well together, they kind of create a dreamlike feel to the cover, with all the girls floating in the water and the big sea monster behind them. I also like the style of the characters, Paukova has used shape well when creating these characters.

Andrea Wan - I was really drawn to this piece of editorial work by Andre Wan because of the idea behind it. The article was on raising teenagers and I think this illustrates that idea brilliantly. The woman is holding the shape of a child but the child is actually a house with a teenager sat in bed upstairs and the mother looking up towards her. The idea behind this is really clever and shows how you can illustrate simple points using clever and complex illustration.
