What is conceptual illustration? • Conceptual illustration expresses the illustrators personal and creative ideas about a subject of their choice. Idea based! • Often times these illustrations are considered surreal or dreamlike. • The illustrations do not have to depict things in a realistic way. • Many kinds of illustration can be morphed together to create a conceptual illustration. What makes a good conceptual illustration? Balance between clarity and uniqueness Conveying meaning Telling the story but in a direct way Simplicity and elegance Ability to evoke a memory or feeling in the viewer Juxtaposition- combining 2 unrelated things to create meaning Making something exist even though it doesn’t exist in real life
