BLACK CAT CAFE

This cafe illustration was based on a photo of a London Pub. The picture was snapped during twilight when the bubbled bay windows of the building filtered light onto the darkening walkway. There was an eye-catching play between the warm lights of the pub and the cool colors of the paved street.

​

Inspired by mosaics, this illustration makes use of a multitude of colored segments. While up close these aspects may over overshadow the larger picture, a step back allows it to be revealed. These large pieces of color isolate and identify the relationship of light on the environment. The vivid differences between the liveliness of the building and the slowing energy on the road motivated Amanda to capture this essence.
