Maude White

Visiting Artist Lecture Poster | 2017

Objective

Create a poster to promote a visiting artist lecture in the style of that artists work. The artist must be someone outside of the graphic design field.

Result

The artist I chose is a paper-cutting fine artist named Maude White. White's illustrative paper-cut work focuses on incredible detail that is inspired by organic shapes, animals, and nature. I was inspired by the integrity of her work and decided to create a hand-cut paper work in her style that included her name as the center piece of the poster surrounded by waves– an element she frequently uses. Maude frequently showcases her work by photographing her holding it on a black background. I chose to replicate this style as the base for my poster.
