This was a very clever take on an iconic image. Ronald McDonald's shoes. When I see these red and yellow shoes I think of McDonald's. But this is an advertising for a restaurant called Food Express. The twist of the use of the shoes with smoke coming out of the tops and the statement "The Hottest Fastfood in Town", draws your attention to this advertisement. I found the choice of colors against the black background added to it's overall appeal. I would love to stop by and taste the food. I'm intrigued!

This was an ad campaign for Conde Nast Traveler. The gloves are a humorist statement regarding Louis Vuitton. The iguana's are a way of talking about Nicaragua. And the restaurant menu in Burmese is given all as a forewarning to use the Traveler before traveling abroad. I found this a very interesting concept in advertising. I liked the play on element to make their point. I love the Golden brand of acrylics! I have painted with them for years. Even though my first love is the watercolor medium, I spent many years painting acrylics as well. Recently, I found out that Golden has started producing a watercolor called QoR. This is exciting news! This product includes some of the most translucent and vivid colors on the market. But I wouldn't guess that from there marketing campaign. As an artist this graphic design is not aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Yes there are vivid reds and golds, but nothing to show that this watercolor is any different then other watercolors on the market. I want to change that... I found this advertising to be extremely clever. The twist on the eye of the peacock feather and the human eye is very creative. Not only because the peacock feather is amazingly beautiful, but the viewer is drawn into the advertising. We see in the caption, the beauty of being yourself, in looks, in dress, in living. This cover design draws the attention to the article in the magazine. The bottom graphic is also using the peacock feather to give the viewer a look at the colors in eye makeup. The advertisement is promoting the brilliance of eye colors that most represent the colors in the peacock feather. Your eyes will look stunning if you wear this makeup. Very Clever! |
