Illustrated Maps

5/6/09   As I mentioned at the start, one part of the brief requires us to produce ‘maps’ for each word, roughly showing where the word is and whats around it. Now that I have all my words, I’ve drawn up my maps using watercolour pencils, and scanned them into to my least favourite program … Read more

Update

2/6/09 Jut a quick visual update on my progress so far… “influence” is still nowhere to be found

Your is first off… it is EVERYWHERE. In print, on signs. … Read more
