Mosbah Tayara, grade 10, “Green Day,” digital print, 13×19 in.
Students were asked to create an original design for an unmade album of music by an artist. By combining their own photos and artwork (even the lettering was done by hand) through the tools in Photoshop and Illustrator, students explore the art of the album cover. Mosbah’s work presents an original and cohesive use of the language of graphic design through his use of layering original imagery, vector-based drawing, and textural overlays.
