Following yesterday's crit session with Amber, Jo and 5 other members of the group, I decided to go back to my original idea, and develop it further. I wanted to maintain the simplicity, yet incorporate more of a focus on imagery rather than type. Here are my resolved solutions, which I feel meet the criteria of the brief more successfully following issued raised in yesterday's session.
Here are larger versions; to see better detail etc.
Although these haven't taken as much time, I do feel they meet the criteria of the brief more directly. The colours are complimentary when working as a series, and I decided after yesterday's crit session to stay away from the colour 'blue' as this typically represents rain, whereas I feel this way we are focusing more on the bright colours we see around us that we wouldn't have if rain didn't exist..
