Week 2


Craft: 
How did you do it? 
I used Illustrator, and on it the pencil, blob, and pen tools. I used the pop art color scheme. 

How did you improve it?
It's been improved by showing a happier side to Lincoln. I don't think he was always frowning.

Composition: 
Why this photo? I liked that I could play with more than just Lincoln's face. 

Why these colors? I felt like bringing out some positive in brightness in Lincoln, because his images are usually kind of gloomy looking. The guy is described as warm, so why not portray him as that...

Why did you arrange the page the way you did? 
I thought all of the colors looked cool.

Concept:
Where or when should Lincoln go by next week?  I'm thinking maybe the 60s.
