abstract triptych

here is my abstract triptych:



deconstruction of s

having never much used illustrator before, this exercise was great in familiarizing me with the software. i began with three capital S's in font type futura, which i find quite aesthetically pleasing. i then chose two different shades of orange that i felt mixed well. with the idea of experimenting with positive/negative space, i found myself wanting to stretch the edges of each letterform to reach the boundaries of the canvas. i then manipulated the shapes on the inside of the squares to create some individuality within the shapes. the end result, to me, is something quite interesting to look at it and while it is rather simple, i am pleased.
