Chasing An Invisible Dream
Created in March 2007.
This is an illustrated poetry book which I made as a design assignment during high school.
All poems and images are created and writtern by me.
It is a very personal piece of art as it is a collection of memories and feelings.
This is the original book cover (with back cover) printing design before adding in the dark background and reverse the color to give a ghostly atmosphere.
This is the original poster design before adding more dears to make it into a 2 page spread book cover design.
The flock of dear are following an invisible leader. It seems like in a dream, some hope or desire being chased by others.
This is the original book cover design before adding the dark background and reverse the colors giving it a ghostly atmosphere.
After adding more herds and a dark background, the final version of the book (front & back) cover is completed.
The images are traced through photos of my own in Illustrator and created an outline with a transparent feeling.
The above image is one of the jpg files of the original design. You can see how the arrangment looks before being cropped into the printed size.
This is one of the final stages products demonstrating how it would look like after adding a dark background.
