Girl

This is a style I want to incorporate into my designs. Line drawings and photographs combined with different textures. 

Dreams

This is just a collage made up of different textures to show the man's dream.

Dreams are a very interesting concept to portray in collage as the possibilities are endless and the way things link in to each other adds a flowing feel to the image.

Wolf + Flowers

This is an interesting collage which has been made by hand. I like the result of combining the texture of the wallpaper and the combination of the angry dog face and the calm flower image.

Hands - Different ways of drawing/photographing

I am looking to draw/photograph hands but I need to research ways in which it can be done to really represent what I am trying to say. 

I do not know whether I want the hands at the top to be holding each other... because you then won't be able to see the life lines on the palms.

I thought it might be a good idea to do hearts made up of hands. One male and one female. 

I will then draw these.

These are some of my own photos of people's hands.

Life Lines- Palm Reading

I have been researching life-lines on hands as this is a very good way of visually representing an issue which has come up in one of the songs. Now, Voyager mentions the difference in the singer's and his girlfriend's lifelines. His family have a history of short life spans... the opposite to his girlfriend's. It also mentions the 15 years that she will be a widow. 

This is a very dark subject and I want to visually represent that. 

I thought it might be a good idea to join up two life-lines and inter-twine them throughout the page... and then one ends abruptly leaving only the hand of a skeleton. 

This is my research into old folklore and different theories about life-lines and palm reading. 

This bottom image is a propaganda poster for the Navy and has a very interesting concept behind it, one which I was thinking of putting into my own work. 

Basic Life Line Meanings:

Long Line: Good Health, Vitality

Short Line: It is a myth that a short life line means a short life. If the life line is short, look closer to other signs (broken, deep, faint, etc.)

Deep Line: Smooth Life

Faint Line: Low energy

Broken Line: Struggles, Losses

Chained Line: Multiple Walks (meaning that your life path is multifold)

Forked Line: Various meanings depending on fork placement on the hand. Generally forks indicate diversion or life change. Although they can also mean scattered or split energies.

Double Line: Partner with Soul Mate, or there is someone near (friend or family member) that serves as a guardian or caretaker.

Absent Line: Anxious, Nervous

What the Life Line On Your Palm Is Telling You

Your life line reveals the strength of your vitality and gives a strong indication of how long you will live. It is the most important line on your palm and everyone’s hand has a life line.

It the easiest to recognize and all other lines are read in relation to this major line. Usually it swoops down to about an inch above the base of the palm which indicates a life expectancy of about 70 years for women and 60-65 for men. 

The line begins from the edge of the palm between the index finger and the thumb, extends across the middle of the palm and wraps around the base of the thumb.

Markings on the line indicate significant events, travels, trials and tribulations as well as triumphs and successes. When marks appear on your life line - be they islands, circles, crosses or tributary lines - they spell momentous events that leave their mark on your mind and on your life. 

From the life line, you can read of the potential of such events happening and depending on where they appear on the line, you can even predict when such tumultuous and momentous events might occur.

There are some really interesting ideas here which I could incorporate well into my design for the Now, Voyager poster.

Paris - through illustrated type and image

One of my posters is going to be in this kind of media. Screen printed. A mess of type and imagery all associated with one subject.

Type & Image

This is a very simple version of what I want to do. Very clear and concise mix of type and image
