Illustration Styles for Book Club

Hi Francesca!

Thanks so much for thinking of me for the poster design of your play. Here are some illustration styles that I think would work really well with your play material. Both styles capture a sense of depth, complexion, and a level of abstraction that makes the characters feel relatable.

Calligraphy Style

Emotive, abstract calligraphy created with a dip pen on paper. Thick, gestural strokes convey movement and feeling over precision, blending tradition with raw expression. This style emphasizes spontaneity and emotional resonance through form. Hand-drawn and digitized for high-quality print production.

Optional: Add water color for an accent color.

Digital Illustration Style

A loose, hand-drawn digital portrait style with playful lines and minimal detail. Bold features and flat colors add personality, giving it a casual, sketch-like charm. Drawn digitally for high-quality print production.
