Assignment: Ogden Nash Poem

Illustrated Text: Ogden Nash Poem

Size: determined by artist

No Maximum Saturated Colors

Create an illustration incorporating hand done text for one of the Ogden Nash poems below. Notice that your samples given in class incorporate images and are still conscious of elements such as composition. Please use the title as well as the actual poem in your final illustration.

Color wise, create a palette that does not have any maximum saturated colors (colors will be lighter, darker, or grayed out from their purest form, so no fire engine red!). Remember to borrow ideas from the color presentation.

You can check out tigercolor,com to refresh yourself on some of the color theory we talked about
