Tomorrow is the first day of The Rejection Collection, the new exhibit at the Cartoon Art Museum. The show features cartoons that were rejected from The New Yorker magazine.
I created the graphic material for the show.
For the front of the postcard I took a high-res file from the book cover that the show is based on and carefully removed some of the text. The background has a nice stripe design which made it easy to cover up the un-needed material, but made it impossible to move any original element from side to side.
The back of the postcard features a texture of real crumpled paper that was brought into the design.
The banner features a printout of the illustration which was then trashed and scanned back into the computer and composited with the other elements.
