Editorial Illustration


Fourth(?) assignment: Choose an article and make an illustration for it.
I chose a New Yorker short piece about trigger warnings on university books. I think the piece itself is pretty explanatory.

Thoughts: Honestly, I think this was my weakest piece. Although I think I was pretty successful with getting the idea of the article across, and I like the harsh black/white bottom of the book and the poses of some of the students, I'm unsatisfied with the hanging blonde girl and black guy, as well as the cloud background. All in all, I don't think what's outside of the black-white bottom of the book matches its intensity and dynamism. Verdict: MEH
