This week focused on the many different ways that illustrations can be created. I want to experiment with creating some illustrations for my music app, I plan to do this using, hand-drawn and scanned illustrations, procreate, and Figma. I think by using these different processes I will be able to create different icons with different feelings.

I began considering illustrations for my music app and I started with the idea of having different illustrated covers for the playlists that are available on and come with the app. Project 1 - Music App

I experimented with including the icons for each decade on the cover of playlists that would be generated based off the generation but I wasn't sure if these were too busy as they were on a smaller scale, so i decided not to include them into my design.

2nd Master Apprentice Task - Music App UI

For this master apprentice exercise i focused more on the spacing of the UI and the font sizing, as i had already created icons in weeks 1+2.
