Haiku

The Haiku
2022
This project was to create an illustration based on a haiku;
“The light of a candle is transferred to another candle”

Initially, my idea was much different, creating too much information and confusion for the viewer. With the glow of the candle, it was fighting with the yellow of the candle and the text around it.

My improvement was to put away the idea of the glow of the candle but I stayed with the idea of the text. I filled it with grading and improved the link between them to create a simpler design. I then moved the text to the top and reduced the size of it to not make it fight with the word “Light”

My challenge in this project was to figure it how to make the haiku into a design with only illustration. This project was made in my first year in this program and it was to one I was to most proud of.
