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 doesnt exist in real life
