Belinda Rodriguez

Found Belinda whilst I was going through the explore bit of Instagram and she's so cool! I want to make myself known as a paper artist too! haha. Anyway, I've been thinking how I would actually do the layout for my yearbook - I know that I want it quite simple and not too messy since I want to keep the focus on the actual paper characters and then I found Belinda's first paper cut book and I like how her paper illustrations are all simply on plain white or coloured backgrounds - makes it look quite elegant and smart.

Paper illustrations photographed on plain coloured backgrounds make it more fun looking! and we're all a fun bunch here on the Illustration course! I was also thinking of having everyone's names on the bottom of each pieces too - but I don't know now. I'll have to see how that'll look. or maybe I can just have a list of everyones name at the back of the book like a glossary type thing. 

 My first initial idea was actually to have some sort of frame around them like the ones below, but I wasn't sure if this would make it more expensive. I do still like the idea, but I'm not going to spend money if I can do it some other way.

Edit 15/01/16 - Belinda noticed me!
