Now after getting my idea of how to put the text, I had to think of how to design the page for this, as it dealt with the scouts. Being an Eagle scout, I use a dark green that close the the color of the pants and main colors of the troops, I also took the the text on page 2 to shape it into a Pine tree, since we like to camp a lot.

After getting some very helpful tips, I lighten up the color as to make the text stand out more, along with fixing certain part of the text as they were spaced out way too much then needed. The Problem I seem to keep happening no matter what i did, was the spacing of the second page. Some of the lines would space out the words as like this. Hopefully I there a way to fix it.

After some pointers, I applied some new changes and the text in page 2 clean up way better then the second draft did, overall, the color was lighten up again so that the text would stand out more, and spacing was added to separate the paragraphs of the text.

Artist Statement
The Idea of the work was to show off the font style of any font that had a vast variety of options to display them. For the text/story used to show the text, I pick this story to not only just show off the font, but because it cover the story of a boy scout, which I was glad to be part of and still help out with today. The 2nd page also is shaped to a tree since scouts would go out in the woods full of trees to camp. Overall I think the work meet the goal, but that for the person wanting the work to decide on.
