For GDES 2321-01

The assignment to make Plotters had few parameters, but to have a centered way of creating. I chose to make a series of sketches based on how my anxious thoughts creep in on me during while trying to meditate. I used a black felt marker and when my certain thoughts crept in my head I would scraw them down. I then scanned them, and made my favorite of roughly 25 sketches into images that I hoped would make others understand how my thoughts can both shut me down and open me up.

These were my three favorites.

use of balance, weight and b/w color scheme.

Being assigned the task to write a truism on an important lesson learned in my life/ a belief I hold dear to me was not a difficult task, but I wanted my zine to be one of a kind.

I chose I believe in Aliens & they have been to earth, and wrote and illustrated a reflection of popular phenomenons relating to this insight. I chose the more expensive of the inks because I felt like the glittery gold would give the book a mysterious and magnificent feel the message deserved. Layering it with hot pink to add my feminine touch on top of the well contrasting grey paper turned out better than I even imagined.

My font choice reflects the historical value of the subject and boldness of the statement. I used adobe illustrator and Photoshop, as well as many research platforms to gather information.
