1 I was lying in bed trying to sleep, looking up at the glow in the dark stars on my ceiling with the curtain open (in theory the light wakes me up in the morning) with music playing quietly and rain sounds on the sleep app of my phone. It was very calming and I like the idea of doing a very dark navy blue poster with light blue or green lines (similar to my written diagram), but I wasn't sure how to add text or other signifiers of ME, especially professionally. I thought I could make the stars into constellations of words, but in the end this idea seemed better in my head and not suited to the brief. The dark blue is a bit dark and depressing, which only reflects PART of my year!
2 My room! An anatomy of my room with funny annotations, some slightly self-deprecating, but which reflect my thought processes and evaluation of myself and my practice. This idea I thought was the strongest, as it includes, humour, character and bold, warm colours - reflecting my state of mind at the time of finishing the year. I've learned a lot and grown a lot as a person and illustrator.
Everyone else agreed in the crit that this was the strongest idea, especially relating to me personally, as it shows the various aspects of my personality and what's important to me in my practice!
3 Another A-Z typology poster.
4 Some kind of funny infographic about my year - stats and figures tailored to me that are also funny, like how many hours of sleep missed out on, cups of coffee drunk etc. But I figured that would be more graphic design-y and type-baed rather than completely illustrated? Not very compositional.
