I made my final image in a square format, mainly because the lino I had used was square. I was unsure about the dimensions of the work as the brief just said "no larger than A4 Landscape orientation" so I didn't know if that meant, make it A4 Landscape, or just any format that would fit within that frame.
I tried cropping it to an A4 landscape format but I definitely still prefer the original square format as that fits all the information on the page, and doesn't have to cut off the circle. (I submitted both just in case).
I'm pretty happy with what I've made here, I feel like I'm really learning more about how to make work I want to make, and choosing projects that I'm engaged with! I really enjoyed this brief, I had a lot of fun and I feel like I have progressed a bit more with working with lino! I still have more work to do before I'll be really happy with my skills but practice makes perfect eh?
I think that my image is a pretty good representation of Stardust. It also leaves a lot of mystery to people who may be new to it, as big events and other characters remain unknown. There's just the suggestion that this female character has something to do with a jewel.
I feel that the idea is simple and straight-forward but the imagery, colours etc is bold and I, personally just like looking at this.
