Assignemtn number two for Conceptual Illustration class. This goes to a REALLY boring article about the purpose of a refridgerator, and how to maintain one. *yawn* We had to make some eye catching or at least somewhat interesting illustration to go with it, and still pertain mostly to the subject matter. I ultimatly chose a cliche arctic animal to portray cold-ness, and a sandwich for the food part. Kinda far away from the article, but at least I had fun with it.

Done in acrylic and a TEENY bit of coloured pencil touch up (like a few strokes, this is not a coloured pencil piece). Critique discouraged because I get all the critique I ever need for a single piece in class. Besides, I know that background is super sloppy, it bugs me because I would have rather had a smoother gradient. It's not like I can't do a better gradient, that's easy with drybrushing. I just didn't care too much at that point, it was 5 in the morning and I just wanted a shower before I went to class. XD

I decided not to upload my first project for class because it's super boring subject matter (Donald Trump with a big dollar sign flag standing on the moon). It's also my first all acrylic thing in a long time, so I look at it now I feel like I can do a WAY better job if I did it again.
