Draw Me A Story Exhibition

Today we went as a group to look at an exhibition on children's illustration in the museum . It was research for the project we are currently doing.

Most of the illustrations there were very simple. What I mean by this is that the majority of the drawings were all line based drawings. As well as this making it clear for the children to understand of the picture more the simplicity in the illustrations makes the meaning behind the illustrations very clear.

The mood in most of the illustrations were really exaggerated and there was also a limited use of strong colours. The majority of the pictures either did not have a background or just had a very simple plain background. Due to this it made them meaning of the illustration very focused.
