Universalis #7 Poster uses purple colors, some typography, and a hexagon as a central geometric form.
The mini-series is inspired by space and futuristic design in a minimalist way.
The Design
As I said yesterday, I didn’t use the brush tool to realize today’s poster even slightly. I made an overdose of grunge effect, and I have to wait a moment before using it again — don’t worry, it won’t be so soon; too much is too much!
I tried to stay minimalist. I was fighting my desire to add more elements to the composition only to see if I could find something better. I always finish with something that looks like a rough draft. Ultimately, I removed many elements and developed a minimalist style again. Enough is enough, too.
Before jumping on my computer and designing, I must stick to my ideas and sketches. Sometimes, I have no idea what I will do. That’s terrible, and occasionally happy mistakes happen. But it’s often more time-consuming than fast, happy mistakes or pleasant discoveries. The problem when you have experience with software is that you think you are faster without sketching. You think you can do everything you want fast, and yes, it is fast when you know what the final resultwill look like.
Speed Art Poster #198
I am enthusiastic about tomorrow’s poster because it will be number 200. Unfortunately, I have no idea how I should celebrate it! Whatever, you can look at the speed art video about today’s poster and see how I designed it.
I am grateful to have you here, and I see you tomorrow for poster #200!
