Open laptop revealing screen and online article on Noema Magazine website. The story is titled 'Everyone needs a trust fund' and shows an editorial collage illustration depicting the main themes and arguments.
four alternative colour ways for this editorial collage illustration using the chosen art concept. Tones of pink blue green and purple have been alternated and tested across the four final artworks.

This is an editorial collage artwork commissioned by Noema Magazine supporting a story about 'Baby Bonds' and how they facilitate the lives of young people.

The key visual themes explored here were money and babies and I aimed to bring textures, shapes and colours into the illustration that effectively conveyed the story. Shown here; the 3 initial rough sketches that helped pave the way to the chosen composition, the final artwork in situ on Noema's website and a few alternative colourways that were explored throughout.

Thank you Art Director Amara Higuera for this opportunity as well as the other commissions we've worked on together for Noema Magazine.
