Fortune Cookie Project


Here is my finished Fortune Cookie project, for illustration seminar. We each got a cookie in class and had to do an illustration based off of the fortune inside. My fortune was "If you have no critics you'll likely have no success". I decided to keep with my theme from thesis so I could use this as another piece for my show. I wanted to have a bit of fun with the idea and play with how I could show the fortune. So I went with Leonidas and the battle of Thermopylae. I wanted to use a more muted pallet this time and colors I normally don't use. I made the silhouette of the thumbs down subtle so it would take the viewer a few seconds to notice it. I didn't want it to be an obvious photo real hand.
