Initial ideas

For these initial ideas I think that the most successful drawings are either the “talk to someone” or the women sitting alone on the sofa. I think out of these two the main illustration could be sitting on the sofa. I could definitely expend on this idea and make the background interesting, maybe infill it with boxes filled with old items of clothing or the women holding a jumper from the loved one. I could definitely create a more hopeful atmosphere too. Maybe have the women smiling while remembering the past.

I decided to experiment with my idea for a spot illustration. I like the colours used and the simple message above the phone how I think the font needs to look similar to a text on the phone. I attempted to make the blue circle 3D, similar to a message icon however, I think instead of using cross hatching I need to make the highlights look like the surface is shiny.
