Polar Bears
This school project required that our chosen animal be depicted in four different styles: a realistic encyclopedic drawing, a company logo, a gesture drawing, and a transformation. The aim of the project was to successfully adapt a reference photo using four different aesthetics and a range of different mark making techniques to serve four different commercial functions.
