Brief:
Design two postcards. Each with one piece of advice that you would give a first-year Graphic Design Student. You are welcome to make more if inspiration strikes. All graphics and text must be your own.
Advices I chose:
Any idea can work if well done, so love your ideas.
and
No idea is original, only the way you give it life.
Execution:
The first postcard: A lightbulb inside a heart. I think I want to draw this one by hand.
The second postcard: The first idea is typically the wheel. No need to invent the wheel. So I want to design a postcard with all kinds of wheels covering the card.
I changed my mind when I saw a stock photo I really liked and went for a manipulated lightbulb instead. I am really pleased with how this card turned out.
