These days I am reading too many books which talk about another topic than graphic design. It is very refreshing and gives me the opportunity — yes, I use that word — to let my mind goes everywhere freely, and forget my body — still get hurt on my elbow.
That’s probably the reason why I have more difficulties in working these days. My reading absorb me, and the only things I want is to read more books!
Don’t worry! I am also addicted to graphic design. Especially about my self-imposed challenge to create a poster every day for one year. Today, I created “Hidden.”
The Design
The idea behind the poster number 287 was simple. I woke up this morning, and I wanted to create a poster where I hide elements in between gradients. I don’t know where this idea comes from. Maybe I am watching to much Pinterest (the link to my account!).
Or, I read too much. I didn’t read a book about gradients; this is the strange part!
Too accomplish my day wish, I open Photoshop, place the picture of Apollo, add a background gradient plus a large title, and set a new Adjustment Layer under Gradient Map. Then, I select a gradient color I previously made, yes, I was lazy to choose two colors. They work well together and that’s the only important things.
