Hello lurkers and fans! Today's premade is a cover design from MediaDirectory 's challenge two. The first prompt was to make a graphic inspired by the phrase "Gravity no longer exists," and this is what I came up with.

I think the space theme is a pretty obvious creative choice, but I was mainly inspired by Julian's ( plasticparadox ) book, Space Boy.

I wanted to showcase this feeling: butterflies in your tummy, floating in ecstasy, gravity no longer exists and your blooming love for them transcends time and space.

Tip: Learn to play with colors! Many people just stick to one color in texts which can be plain & bland. Your typography will improve if you stop leaving the texts the way it is! Add/overlay some textures to it, use the mask tool to edit things, add a stroke, use a gradient, just play with it and see where it takes you.

I also did the 2nd challenge prompt which was to design a monochromatic moodboard based on an emotion. The emotion I decided to depict is: Righteous Anger

It's quite simple as I spent more time designing the George Floyd piece. You can find more about this issue and my reflections on the crisis by visiting my Instagram profile (@sereneur).

Take care of yourself, your loved ones, and support BIack wattpaders especially now and always. Much Love, Cil.
