Study task 1 - image, idea, context

This is a page from Michael Deforge's 'Very Casual' book. throughout the book
there are many examples of interesting and original styles of illustrations.
This one in particular is one of my favourites. i think it's a successful illustration for many reasons,
such as the creative layout of this page. i like the use of the lines to direct your attention to the squares focusing on the
small details of the illustration and is a nice way to expand on elements of the drawing by enlarging them on the page.
To create this image Deforge used a Cintiq tablet, Micron and Staedtler pens. all the colours are filled in digitally which helps add vibrance to the image.
