  1. I really enjoyed viewing Louise Fili’s work. The image in the blog post was so interesting and caught my eye immediately. Creating covers for over 2,000 books is so impressive. I can see why people hire her due to the beauty of her work. The image included above holds so much depth to it. Its complexity using physical objects mixed with an a-ray of colors allows for an interesting image. The use of objects and color are amazing, but the true beauty is in the typography. Each object has its own characteristics that accompany its text. The different fonts, sizes, colors, and angles of the text create a striking piece of art.
