OUIL603 - Bucktown Arts Fest

Bucktown Arts Fest is an art festival run entirely by volunteers, who a yearly poster competition, to design their promotional poster. The only rules on the design of the poster, is that it must in some way, contain a goat. I was looking through past winning entries to see what they've liked before hand, obv I can do better though.



The bold white font contrasts nicely with the goat, and I actually like the green in the background, which I didn't at first, but it adds a nice depth to it and helps the goat and text to stand out even more.


This one, apart from the dodgy font, I really like, I like the mixture of textured fabric, sewing and drawn imagery.



I really tried to consider composition and depth in this one, as well as using my favourite colour palette; pinks, purples and blues. I used a lot of texture in this too, I painted with water colour and brusho and then scanned the pages in, cutting it up and using elements of that behind the colour, I think that texture also adds a lot more to colour, especially when it's just block colour.

Overall I was actually happy with this! I submitted it to the website, I haven't heard anything back yet but I'm hopeful.
