Two Audiences, Two Images

My blog entry for this section was not very detailed. I listed children, their families and various hospital workers. As I got to thinking about the similarities and differences of these groups, I really just needed to focus on two audiences- children and adults.
I came up with a very simple looking design that can be perceived as two entirely different images and evoke entirely different emotions. A child looking at this picture would see the Q’s as balloons or lollipops, both very happy objects. Adults on the other hand can pick out a more complex scene. The smaller Q is meant to represent a child and the bigger Q and adult caring for them. That adult could be a nurse, doctor or family member. The picture is meant to calm the viewer, remind them that the patient is in good hands.
From creating this tile I learned that simple images can be powerful. I learned that the slightest change in positioning can completely change the message of an image. If I had realized this sooner I could have saved myself a lot of time.
