Process:
I chose women’s profiles as the central theme for inspiration, focusing on their expressive qualities. Through experimentation, I developed a clean, minimalist style using line art that emphasizes elegance and movement. Each design was complemented by bold color palettes to create a striking and cohesive visual language. The project served as a hands-on learning experience, allowing me to refine my technique and gain confidence with Illustrator’s capabilities.
