Visual Research I – Sept 15, 2020.


1. This cover for The New Yorker created by Tomer Hanuka incorporates the element of texture as the character in this piece is seen to be modelling a top made of dandelion fluff. Hanuka’s ability to create a texture so similar to dandelions ends up creating a sense of lightness that flows throughout the piece.

2. Levente Szabo’s use of the element of shape in the cover of ‘The Boy with the Tiger’s Heart’ creates a sense of depth as the branches of the trees and the vibrant orange sunset work together and create the shape of tiger.
3. Christopher Delorenzo presents an interesting example of using negative space in his illustration ‘She & Him’. The use of the uneven edges of the apple’s core creating a silhouette of two faces staring at each other is such a creative way of using space.
