The project is to create an illustration of a landmark that means something to you.

Choose Your Landmark

Think about the place and what it represents. Find an interesting way to portray it. Ideally, visit the location. Upload any photos, sketches or references.

Compose Your Illustration

In sketching, focus on the core attributes the landmark has and try to distil them. Upload your progress and explorations.

Create Your Artwork

Using the tools of your choosing, develop a final piece that retains the minimalism of your sketches while expanding on details that help tell the story of the landmark. Feel free to upload work in progress.

Prep and Share Your Final Piece

Tweak, finish and export your illustration for the appropriate channels—print, social, animation or something else.

Share your work in the project gallery—if it’s a physical product, feel free to photograph it as well as uploading any digital images. Check out other students’ landmarks too.
