These are 3 of the experiments I have done with texture and simplification, I like the simplified faces and think that they can show emotion just as well as the original more complex design. The shapes draw you in and I think they act as a prompt for peoples own imaginations. I think the textured background adds a feeling of crafting to the illustration and makes the character stand out. I have completely removed the facial features of the baby as they are not needed for the narrative and the two simple shapes are unmistakably a baby. I do like the effect of the hair but think it makes the design more complicated than it needs to be and detracts from the simplicity and clarity of the illustration.
