My Modern Folk Art Poster

Hey everyone!

Here’s my project for this class :D

For this poster, I started by taking 3 simple reference photos and using them as inspiration for the  motifs in the final piece. I really wanted to keep this process fast, playful, and focused on simplification rather than perfection.

In the images below, you’ll see:

  • The 3 photos that inspired the poster
  • The rendered elements 
  • A composition comparison, going from the black shape layout to the final artwork
  • The finished poster at the end

I’d love to see what references you pick and how you transform them into your own poster too!
