REFLECTION

Working on the illustration project centered around the journey of a girl and her dog was both rewarding and challenging. Initially, my drawings were too literal, focusing on straightforward depictions rather than exploring deeper symbolism. However, I gradually realized that effective illustrations not only complement the story but also enhance its emotional depth, leaving room for readers' imagination. This project taught me the importance of maintaining a cohesive visual style, as relying on too many varied references created inconsistencies that disrupted the flow of the narrative. Moving forward, I plan to explore more abstract and symbolic elements, using nature and other metaphors to better convey the evolving relationship between the characters, ultimately making my illustrations more engaging and emotionally resonant.
