It's October! Every day is Halloween now. To exemplify what we read in our chapters, I decided to rip a symmetrical looking pumpkin out of a page and fill the background with repeated rounded shapes. Lupton wrote, "In design, balance acts as a catalyst for form -- it anchors and activates elements in space" (49). The background here fills up all of the negative space. The pumpkin in the middle helps anchor the image down.
To quote from the text again, "A design whose elements all have a similar size often feels dull and static, lacking contrast in scale" (61). All the shapes in the background vary in size. They also have the same shapes inside but sized differently. There isn't much change in terms of scale of the pumpkin. It would've been cool to carve it out maybe but I wanted to draw a pumpkin by itself!
