2011 Hilton Head International Young Artists Piano Competition

Hilton Head International Youth Artists Piano Competition
Digital
February 2010

For our third assignment in Computer Illustration we had to create a book cover or make a poster for the 2011 Hilton Head International Young Artists Piano Competition. The guidelines were to illustrate the cover/poster using digital collage and create and use at least three of our own digital brushes. We could scan in drawings, textures, hand-written text, etc and combine it all in Photoshop. I had a hard time getting started, bounced many cover ideas back and forth for about three class periods and a number of hours outside. Eventually I decided that the poster might work better. But I was having issues with that too. However, after many, MANY hours working on the piece, it's finally finished, along with my sanity. I hope it looks ok - the text/typeface is what caused the most grief for me. Good thing I'm not a graphic designer.
