Project 2 - Gina Khouth
This is a set of surreal illustrations called "Consuming Daydreams." I created this as a personal illustration, as well as challenging myself with illustrator.
I will work on the cup ramen, and have less strands of noodle.
The shadows used in the last one with the water bottle are incredible! The falling action on the first and the oozing movement on the second is very good as well.
ReplyDeleteAll of the designs are unique and the shadows are very realistic.
ReplyDeleteI love love love love these. They're all so clever! I think my only issue is that on the Cup Ramen it looks like the chairs are rotating in a circle in front of the cup rather than going around it. Maybe hide the ones behind it that would be looping back around, as well as adjusting a couple of the noodles to fall behind it as well.
ReplyDeleteThese are all really neat, the chocolate one reminds of a volcano and magma near the little island.
ReplyDeleteThese are all great Gina, I love the concept. The colors contrast well, the shadows create depth. I think there are too many noodles for the chairs I think less is more in that one in particular. The cereal box would cast a slight shadow on the inside of the bowl as well where the flap comes down.
ReplyDeleteI see 3 illustrations that seems to work together, and be of similar styles. One stands out as not belonging - I wonder if you can identify the one I'm talking about? Some suggestions:
ReplyDeleteHave you considered enlarging the bowl of cereal... in fact pulling the viewer in closer to the action (cereal falling into bowl), so some of the elements bleed off the page? I'm suggesting this because it might enhance the "action", but also give us a close up look INTO that bowl...which could contain a suggestion of a universe (or night sky). Without it - we associate this with a bowl of milk... white milk. How can you get us to accept the black inky color of that liquid? Make it represent something?
Is yellow the best background color for the fish bowl? I seems to dull the blue colors of the water... this could be bright and beautiful, was that your intention?
