Sketchbook Assignment 1

Layout - My goal was to achieve balance on each page, as well as unity. I positioned the largest of the items at opposite corners and filled things around it. Where there was dead space I garnished with a floral ornament.

Hierarchy - The items that are dramatized are the most important to me. The fire pit is where I go to find my sanity again and collect my thoughts. The jug is a reminder of the miracles of Jesus.

Text: I placed the text next to the items that most provoked these feelings. The font isn't fancy however, the beginning letters in all the words are capitalized to create attention.

Color: I choose gray to give an old-world feeling, especially since all of my objects are kinda "antiquity" looking and They all Definitely have that ARTIFACT color and hand.
