This social commentary design offers a powerful canvas for exploring symbolic color choices. Let your creativity flow and reflect on the message as you bring this artwork to life!
Fine-tip colored pencils are ideal for the intricate details of the pills, money patterns, and small objects. Gel pens can add sharp highlights to the text or specific elements. For larger areas like the central text, brush markers can provide smooth, even coverage.
Focus on coloring the large central text first with a single bold color. Use a limited palette of 3-4 colors for the surrounding objects to avoid overwhelming the design. Work on one section at a time to manage complexity. Don't worry about perfect shading; focus on filling the spaces cleanly.
Employ color layering to create depth and texture on the crumpled money and various pills. Use stark contrasts (e.g., bright colors for the text against muted background elements) to emphasize the message. Experiment with cross-hatching or stippling for different textures on the granular substances or the slot machine. Consider using symbolic colors to represent hope, despair, or recovery.
