These gave me a giggle

Final A2 poster

All finalised and sent to the printer and everything. Quite happy with it two!

I want one of these!

In my sketchbook I've been experimenting with stampers, I'd love to have a wee go with this one.

Different techniques

I love the second piece here. I think its because the parts that have been cut out are still around the page.

Lyric a day

I found this blog, where a girl has created different pieces using the lyrics of songs. It's quite a nice idea and they have some nice pieces. I might try this, using quotes or proverbs, (short and sweet)... i'm thinking if i limit myself to a certain length of time on each one (30-60 mins) and then i could keep them for future reference of techniques that work, even if i don't finish them. I can always come back to them.

Heres some examples from the blog:

Anthony Burrill

Anthony Burrill is known for his catchy and clever posters that have become words to live by for the design community and beyond. In bold typography, his messages seem a bit in your face and straight to the point, but  it's clean, crisp and refreshing.

Ellen Lupton

Found this website created by Ellen Lupton - It simply describes all aspects of typography, including letter text and grids. It also has simple definitions of words used for typography.

Lupton is curator of contemporary design at Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum in New York City and director of the Graphic Design MFA program at Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) in Baltimore. An author of numerous books and articles on design, she is a public-minded critic, frequent lecturer, and AIGA Gold Medalist.
