For this project, I chose to use fortune telling as my theme because I have recently been interested in spirituality, witchcraft, and astrology. I thought it would be interesting to draw myself as the fortune teller and using second person point of view.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started out by listing out possible themes and ended up choosing fortune telling because I felt inspired by it and really liked the idea of addressing the audience as if I\u2019m telling their fortune. Then, I made a separate list of the elements I want to include on the page to make sure I have enough space to fit everything.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After planning out my yearbook spread, I began making a sketch of the page (see images attached down below) and you can see that the sketch is different from the final product. That is because after finishing my sketch, I went back and examined the elements to see which ones are unnecessary and how I can make the overall image look more mystical and captivating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tried to incorporate as many fortune telling tools as I could think of. For example, I added tarot cards to communicate my other choice of career and secret (of me being Hannah Montana LOL). As for the medium, I used pencil crayon, fine liner and watercolor. With watercolor, I painted smoke and fog purple to make the page seem more mysterious yet peaceful because I didn\u2019t want it to seem gloomy or sinister. Aside from the purple, I tried using mostly warm and rich colors like yellow, orange, brown and burgundy.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would grade myself an 8\/10.\u00a0Regarding my\u00a0creative process, I could\u2019ve managed my time better and\u00a0maybe consider using more design elements. Additionally, I feel like my page is too crowded and\u00a0could have limited the number of elements to avoid distractions. I realized afterwards that it might have been better if I only added smoke on the bottom page since that the top page is already quite busy. Nevertheless, I like how my theme is obvious and\u00a0I used a balanced colour palette.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
