Design For Instagram: Creating the Perfect Flat Lay Photograph

Hi Judith, Thanks for uploading your project and sorry it's taken me so long to respond.  I'm just catching up after the summer holidays! This looks great.  Your drawing is fab!  I like the simplicity of the white and it's good to experiment with angles like this.  Did you take any other images at the same time as you took this one?  I'd be really interested to see a range of compositions, for example a straighter angle or stripped-back version of just the drawing and the pencils.  It's always good to experiment and rearrange things as many times as you like when taking flat lays - sometimes you can be pleasantly surprised by things that you wouldn't have considered looking amazing! - and the beauty of digital cameras, of course, is that we can take pretty much as many photos as we like and it doesn't matter how they turn out! Keep practicing and feel free to add more images here in the future! Anna :)

I enrolled in this class to learn how to create interesting flat lays that show work I am doing in my art journal.
