Here i am .. back again with another Illustration Friday post. Thanks to all who visited my blog last week and left me all those encouraging comments on my previous illustration ‘empty’.

This weeks word is ‘Wisdom’
*oooooh.. angels singing and yoda scuttling about* – were the first things i saw in my head .. but thankfully was able to brain-fart this one out :)

The definition of “gathering” knowledge over time appealed to me quite a bit and so i thought it’d be fun to take a literal approach on this one. … am not going to say much about it, cuz it seems quite self explanatory

… so leave me a comment and let me know how i went and what you think :)

I like it! What a really creative concept of raking up wisdom…good use of type and the the contrast of gold and black. I really like this a lot.

I love this. I like the comp, and the wonderful negative space of the path, and the really great use of typography. What a good concept.
