Poem Book Illustration & Layout Design – War & Innocence
Sequoyah Burke-Combs
Published
Hired by poet to illustrate and design a poetry book that satirically exposes the consequences of “giving war a chance,” blending irony with harsh realities to critique violence for profit. The collection uses stark black-and-white linework contrasted with bold red accents to symbolize blood and loss, amplifying themes of innocence destroyed for political and economic agendas. Each panel integrates haunting verses with visual storytelling, merging poetry and imagery into a narrative that is both poignant and provocative. Layout design focused on readability and emotional pacing, ensuring harmony between text and art for maximum impact.
