Here is a personal project of mine which is a counting book from 1 to 10.
It was an assignment for 'Illustration as Design as Illustration' class of SVA by Melanie Marder Parks
For this project, I've practiced to illustrate the same object in a few times... For a result, I came out with these sea creatures.
To put them together as a book, I created a character and gave him a reason to count.
I painted each layer with watercolor, I overlay the typeface, and put them all together on photoshop.
