1. Blending hand‑drawn digital sketches with photographic textures and cut‑out shapes
2. Using bold color blocking and gradients to create mood and depth
3. Overlaying multiple imagery layers to form symbolic, story‑driven compositions
4. Playing with scale and cropping for a surreal, poster-like feel
