Using the foundation of research I have created so far, I wanted to build on my original hot dog book and this time use colour and a cut paper collage aesthetic. Heavily influenced by my visual language sessions of mark making, texture and collage, I wanted to use a different approach to image making rather than just drawing with a fine liner pen. I really love the lo-fi, DIY and hand-made qualities of this hot dog book. I think the colour palette suits this quite well, I wanted something neutral and soothing rather than colourful and attention-grabbing, to represent the serene feeling that buttons can give people. Not sure if the colour scheme works entirely well though? Are these warm shades of grey too moody? Do they evoke the feeling of completeness and happiness? Would muted pastels have worked better?
