Image Type: Single Image
Usage: Cover illustration of a children's magazine.
Process: I scanned the pencil drawings into digital file, coloured and overlapped textures in Photoshop.
Materials: Block ink, Digital.
Formats: Digital files.
Brief Requirements: The editor asked me to show the various activities happened around the world within a day scale. Specific items were needed in correspondent to the contents in this issue, such as truck driver in night shift, india hand-made bags, formosan black bear, artist, the Arctic, window cleaners, ranch…etc.
Key Brief Ideas: I use coloured blocks as an indication of the changing of time. (daytime in front cover–evening around the book spine –and night time in the back cover.) And I created those little characters in the 'cover world', each of them have their own story going on whilst interacting with each other casually.
