Illustration Update
Illustrations are always super fun for me! Its super relaxing working with flat colors.
I used warm brown colors because a lot of the Russian classrooms incorporate wood cabinets and tables with lots of green plants! All of the textures are overlays of real photos of wood. There are multiple students present in the scene, so I tried to keep the focus on Polina by having classmates crowding around her and looking in her direction (so popular.).
