Spot Illustration ideas

 

Here are some initial ideas for my spot Illustrations. In the top left illustration I wanted to show the boy alone on Christmas and missing his dad. However, I didn't want my spot illustrations to be sad, I wanted them to encourage my audience that it can get better, The top right and bottom right are both the same illustration but on the bottom right one I made it look more like a peach bubble. I'm not sure what I think of this drawing as it could be improved by colour but I don't think its getting the point across that he's telling stories of his loved one who has passed. The last illustration is of the boy trying out new hobbies such as gardening. I wanted to show that by having a hobby its a way to have personal growth and it will help with mental health too. 

1. To make this drawing more clear I thought I would change the colour of the leaves coming out of his head lighter and the actual plant have an added outline. This is so that the audience don't get confused with which plant is real 

2. For this one I added in a second person to show that the boy is spending time with his family and that they have accepted what has happened but are able to still talk about their dad and honour his role in the family. 

3. I'm still unsure about the speech bubble and could be seen as too simple of an idea.
