First draft of my double page spread

Here is the first draft of my double page spread. I have placed on one side of the page an image of who the article is based on. As my image was a landscape shot, I had difficulty making the image realistic without making the artists look stretched. I then decided to crop part of the left hand image and move the image slightly to the right to make the picture seem realistic. I have then placed a quote that is going to be in my article above the artists head. I have used the same stroke style I have used on both my front cover and contents page. I have chosen to use this particular quote as it stands out off the page and hits you. I have left the other page blank as this is where my article is going to be placed, I have although changed it to the same background colour as my contents page. To improve this version I am going to begin writing my article onto the right hand side of the page.
