Grasshopper's postcards References










Grasshopper's postcards

Grasshopper decided he wanted to take a vacation to an area that boast of relaxation and beautiful scenery: he came to the conclusion that he would travel to Napa Valley!
Below are some very (very) rough drafts of his postcards.

Assignment 1


  1.  I used combined geometric shapes to give the presence of angles as well as a little repetition.
  2. I  chose a yellow background to offset the darker hues of the shapes.
  3. The yellow background was also chosen to help create negative and positive space.
  4. The green circle is the focal point but I later realized it leads the eye to nothing. 
  5. Small cuts of patterned prints are used to help draw the eye to different parts of the collage.
