below are some of the sketches I did for the book:
the main challenges with the book assignment was coordinating the colouring amongst the group as it was difficult to achieve a consisitent look, however we manged with rather good results.

Assignment 1:
For assignment 1, we had to incorporate our names into 2 designs to show what we 'like' and 'hated'.
For 'like', i chose 'doodling'! As such, my design showed hands in the act of doodling, surrounded by doodles of course! The final design, I used bright colours for the doodles, while a pale skin tone for the arms in order to make the arms stand out and thus my name noticeable.
For the 'hate' design, I chose 'hypocrites', and made used of puppetry to symbolise the manipulative nature of hypocrites. My final piece I decided to use 3 puppets instead of 1 to represent my name, and their awkward positions further serve to accentuate the manipulative sense of hypocrites.
Assignment 2:
Pictogram assignment, I chose to do a sign to warn students of impending stairs! In my final design, I changed the positioning of the arms of the figure to present confusion with covering the years when what I want to portray is a sense of horror! I also modified the look of the stairs so that it looks like the figure is directly in front of the stairs.
Assignment 4:
For our poster assignment, Jing mentioned we cannot use images off the internet, so I replaced the picture of the child with a picture of my young cousins. In addition, I added a frame to the poster, with part of the rainbow coming out of the frame to give the effect of the rainbow popping out at the audience, and the words in the same perspective. This guides the audience from the top of the poster to the bottom, where the website address is located. I also added in blotches of paint to add to the element of fun.
Assignment 5:
The christmas card assignment, my final design I decided to extend the look of the card by using the entire portrait layout. I also chose the colour of the magenta variation as it was unique, a colour not commonly associated with the festive occasion, but somehow it is still able to convey the warm and festive feel of the design.
