Lara Dally

Hello! My name is Lara Dally. Through my work I like to explore the capabilities of illustration and a touch of graphics. 

Throughout my illustration degree, I explored the process and challenges of visual storytelling and gradually, developed a growing interest and passion for design. I found that through learning about graphic design principles and implementing them within my work I was able to more effectively communicate my projects ideas and concepts in a more digestible manner. By my final year, I became thoroughly consumed by graphic design principles and have centered my projects around advancing my technical skills as well as developing my abilities in communicating a concept or story to a particular audience. I am intrigued by utilizing and learning new mediums and software, from expanding my skills in the Adobe suite to experimenting with motion graphics as well as 3d design. 

These skills are something of which I was able to practice and develop upon throughout my final major project. For this project, I set out to produce a piece of printed editorial design to act as a newspaper/ magazine that functioned to inform and educate about the struggles of single mothers. I used 3D design to create illustrations for the magazines that were both visually intriguing but also managed to communicate and evoke a sense of sentimentality. 

Through my work I like to explore new mediums and practices exercising my ambition and how those skills may be utilized to inform, educate or modernize.
