Now here I present to you, my final 4 composition of the Typography Portraits project! Plus some short description of the chosen 4.

MahjongFINAL

The first idea I chose was the I am a Mahjong Tile. It seemed like a really good time to be presenting one with mahjong, especially since it was still around the Chinese New Year period. But not only that, there’s also just a short description of meaning behind it.

Mahjong was actually a weekly thing that happened at home when I was younger. And as a young kid, one will always be curious as to what’s happening on and around. Being that curious young boy, I’ve always sat and watched how my family members played the game, and I picked up how to play along the way as well! And until now, even though I might not be that good at it, I still enjoy the occasional mahjong sessions. It brings a little reminiscence of the past and how i’ve always enjoyed playing mahjong.

SuperheroFINAL

As for my second chosen idea, I chose I am a Superhero. Even until now, I still have the kid inside of me that is still in love with all the superhero stuff. And I really do adore Spiderman.

But other than that, the reason why I chose this idea was that everyone, or at least most people, when they were young, would fancy or look up to a certain superhero or heroine. It’s kind of our childhood, and then there’s a few that carries it on until adulthood. And that’s where I come in, telling the story of how i’ve come to love spiderman as a superhero.

ComicArtistFINAL

And as for my third idea, I chose I am a Comicbook Artist. In this case, it kind of links to the second idea a little more, other than stories of when I was younger. I’ve always liked drawing, ever since I was about 4 or 5 when my mum and my uncle showed me how awesome and truly amazing drawing is. From then on, i’ve always practiced, treating it a lot like a hobby, only realising after that it could be something of what I want to pursue as a career in the future.

From then, too, I started to like comics. The way they’re drawn, how the stories are told, each panel shows the different characters and stories. And each one always played so well in my head. And from there, it links to the amazing styles of drawing that is seen in the Spiderman comics. Hopefully one day, i’ll be an amazing comic artist enjoying the illustration of each panel!

MazeFINAL

And last but not least, my last idea i’ve chosen is I am finding my way. I chose this idea also to show that, at a very young age, people start to discover what they love to do. From there, they choose whether or not to pursue what they love as career, or to choose the other option of getting a stable job and keeping the thing they love as a hobby.

Until now, i’ve always loved to draw, and it’s what I hope to be doing in the future as a career too. But just recently, I was in a dilemma of what I really wanted to major in. I wasn’t sure of what I wanted to do, and even with the benefit of both having drawing which is what i loved to do, I still wasn’t sure. Even though i’ve chosen animation in the end, but I still am not sure what the future holds for me. Which is why, in this idea of finding my way, I decided to show that there will be obstacles along the way, and paths that might lead me to a dead end. But by persevering and taking each task a step at a time, one day eventually, i’ll end up at where I wanna be, and to know what I wanna achieve. As no matter how many paths there are, there’ll always be that one path that will lead you straight to what you’re looking for, and you just have to persevere and not give up.

 

Thanks for taking some time off to read my not so short description! But I do hope you enjoyed it! Enjoy the rest of your awesome day!
