well hello there


When scrummaging through books in Parkland's library, I tend to flip through the pages of many books, hoping that something will jump out at me.  This piece did just that and convinced me to check out For Love and Money New Illustration by Liz Farrelly and Olivia Triggs.  I'm a big fan of all of the use of texture in this piece.  The repetitious use of brick tiling at different sizes and in different focal planes is very unifying.  The jagged lines and drop shadows help us understand the depth within the piece.  The limited color palette utilized is extremely effective in creating a dramatic, eye-grabbing image.
