EXP: Beatrix Potter Resolutions


Here is my final resolution for Beatrix Potter! This was achieved by collaging a range of materials into shapes and sorting them by texture into a picture, scanning them into photoshop and then colouring them in photoshop. I was able to do this far quicker than my About The Author piece because now I know exactly how to change the colours and adjust levels to give it the best possible look. I also chose to gouache a border of carrots just to add into the rabbit theme. It also gives it a border and makes it more postcard-esque.
I submitted it as a postcard design, so I mocked up what it could look like in a frame and what it would look like in a letter being sent to someone! 
I was quite pleased with this one and got good feedback from some other people who saw it. I'm not sure whether collaging is going to be something I really focus on that much this year, I like it but I really hate whats out there with collage art already. Maybe that's more of a reason to make it?
