Themed Illustrations
Each Of these Illustrations has been made with keeping a certain theme in mind. I would take a theme for example wonder and then create a illustration based on the theme.
Wonder
Death
Bait
Monster
When I think about wonder. I think about endless possibilities, that can be created when we wonder about different things. I felt that a Mandela design portrays wonder very well since it has endless designs.
I felt that the Grim Reaper was a perfect representation of death .
The concept of this artwork was to show how pride is a bait in disguise that may harm the future.
I like the movie Monsters Inc. Mike Wazowski was my favourite monster.
Good and Evil
Mindless
Greed
Fantasy
I thought that twinkling stars, a crescent moon and an ancient city would be a good representation of fantasy.
I used money to portray greed. The more money the Pac Man etas, the more greedy the pac man becomes.
This image represents the difference between GOOD and EVIL.
The cloud is my head and the flowing rain are my MINDLESS thoughts.
Imperfect
Sling
Overgrown
Tunes
The fish has “OVERGROWN”. It can not fit the bowl anymore!
These notes make up the tune in music.
The “imperfect” girl is surrounded by “perfect” girls.
I though a slingshot is a good representation of the word sling.
Spirit
Thoughts
Wild
These are the thoughts that remain in my head.
I created twigs, leaves, branches and flowers to depict the theme of wild.
I choose the spirit, form the movie Spirited Away.

Artist Research
I did some research on Artist who's work I found very interesting, based on the research I created a mind map on each artist.
Themed Mind Map
Collages
I created collages to show a visual representation of my ideas.
I first brainstormed ideas relating to words and feelings as shown above, taking inspiration from these mind maps I created collages to represent these words and feelings.
Summer
In the second collage, I wanted to show the sensation of feeling cold. When I feel cold, it adds a sensation of isolation and loneliness. The drawing shows the physical feeling of being cold and atmosphere created above the drawings is suppose to creates the sensation of feeling cold and isolated.
In the first collage I wanted to represent heat through summer. Therefore I created a collage that depicts topical summer feeling. This collage shows the feelings through the flames. It shows typical wear and sunblock protection. All the elements together give the feeling of summer.
Isolation
This collage purely shows irony. Both images are takes from separate magazines, yet when put together the look rather identical. In this collage I wanted to show the “standards of beauty”. The left photo is suppose to show a face that isn’t considered “beautiful”, where as the photo on the right side is suppose to considered as the perfect face. I found it ironic because both the faces look flawlessly perfect yet for some reason, the magazines want people to believe the face on the left is not “beautiful” yet the face on the right is considerd
Standard of Beauty
Heat
This is my main collage. After reviewing the mind maps again. I wanted to go more in depth with the ideas of HEAT. I wanted to focus on global warming and its connection with heat. In this collage I wanted to show how pollution traps heat in the atmosphere and the heat results in melting of the ice bergs, that further results in overflowing of the oceans, this heat and overflowing of the ocean creates an i place in the equilibrium that results, in the death of many animals. In short this cycle is called global warming. Using the collage I wanted to show this cycle visually to have an impact on people.
Storyboard Collages
Below these collages were created to show a story I had written inspired from my local market. The collages act as an storyboard, where in each scene, you can see the story happe
