Music Poster

We had to design an illustration for a beach music festival that featured one genre of music. When I chose the Blues I had set it out in my mind to use any muted color palette but blue. However, you can see how strongly I kept to my convictions.

This project required a lot of planning. I must have changed my idea 12 times before settling with this. Even after getting a solid idea I had to incorporate the beach theme. That task alone was the most difficult aspect.

I like playing around with the textures in this one, and I like how the background contrasts with the solid piano and trumpet. I am also really glad I learned how to do a wood texture. Sometimes I wonder if I will ever learn what every feature is in Illustrator, but that is a good problem to have!
