Self-directed Editorial Brief - Selected Articles from Oh Comely Magazine

For this self-directed project I wanted to give editorial another go. I feel that this is an area I could be interested in if I find the right articles for me to work around. I've been a long time reader of Oh Comely magazine, finding their short stories and articles engaging as well as emotionally driven. For this brief, I have selected three articles from back issues of the magazine, and aim to produce an accompanying image on a weekly basis. If the project is succesful, I aim to print the final images and send them into the amgazines art director and/or submissions department as an attempt to network and try get my work 'out there' a little bit. The magazine regularly features a host of different illustrators and have recently changed their cover design from being photography based to illustration based. The three selected articles are as follows:














Museum of You - Philiy Page
