I wanted to make my poster look softer than usual. The person I picked is an artist. Artist’s image is soft not sharp. So I did not include any thick and sharp lines and shape. I also changed the color more lightly to make it look soft. Then I made her face look gloomy. Matter of the fact that she is African artist must be not easy. Even there are almost no racism in Canada, it is fact that there are still little bit left.
