This painting (in opaque watercolor) was done for part of the cover and spans both the back and front cover, with the fold (right of center) visible. There is really much I didn't like about the layout, as indicated with an early poster; I don't like cutting off bodies to arbitrarily fit them into a background, instead of placing them appropriately; the combination of typefaces is also unattractive to me, as is their absence of flow in reading them together (the large type was actually repeated on the back cover, and the small one on the front cover); and planning the illustrations for the back also doesn't make sense, with only a small photo, not shown here, in front. Nevertheless, I liked to do the modeling of subjects in color. |

These inside images are in sequence. The first one, at left, is used here as printed, with the typeface in this case less objectionable to me. |

The idea in this brochure was for parents to invest in the mutual funds in order to provide for future college education of their children, who would afterward be better prepared for eventual careers. Some of these drawings seem to display after-effects in colors, like the blue and red edges on the trousers at left. These result from imprecise "register", fitting of printing plates, which is noticeable here because of the enlargement. |
