For this project, our goal was to create an attractive and informational poster focusing on a President of the United States. I chose to do a clean and simple style with warm colors and interesting lines. I didn't want any of the elements of the poster to be too bold and overpowering so I changed the opacity on the chain and some of the text, leaving his name and the bold lines of his portrait to be the focal points. Originally I was going to do a fully rendered drawing of his portrait, but it did not fit into the stlye I wanted, so I outlined the features and shadows of his face instead and added color so that the entire poster was more unified. I thought that the subtle dates and letters in the background would fill the space and bring everything together while not distracting the viewer from the main text. Overall I am quite happy with the results.
