Iterative Illustrations Project

For this project, we had to choose an animal or a simple object. I chose a manatee. The purpose of this assignment was to get us to design the same thing in different styles and contexts. This was the longest project we did. We had to have 6 images on our final poster: 2 master artists (we had to imitate their style), gemometric, collage, continuous line, and typographic.

These are my first drafts of my geometric manatee. I built upon the bottom one and then put it on the poster. I decided it still looked like hot garbage, so I completely redid it. The redone version is on my final poster.

These are my first collage manatees. I took time to carefully build them all. Fun fact: the skull face one (the one I used on my final poster) has a well constructed face under the skull, but then I found a skull in a magazine, and thought that that would be cooler.

My continuous line iteration final is similar to this draft, but the draft I did has very bulbous flippers and tail. This draft is very similar to my final because I really liked the look of this guy.
