Portrait Visual in Markers: picking out the differing tones in the face.
Varying faces and positions from hair magazines.
NOTE TO SELF: Edit this later. It's soo bad not having a laptop with PS AND Internet access.

Something that really inspires me is music, especially to create print/motion pieces to. In this case, I decided to take some inspirational song lyrics I've found and to make them into interesting arrangements using purely typography. Many thanks to the various typographers on DaFont for the use of their wonderful creations to aid me in mine.
More posters to follow in the future.
____An HIV awareness campaign I completed while at University never really felt completed before. I woke up one morning and suddenly had an idea of how I could tie the poster together a bit more. Click here for the original posters and developments.
I wanted to promote the 'relationship' side of the target audience more, which lead me to put the imagery into a 'coupley' photoframe with the copyline engraved onto the frame, which I think is a massive step forward from the originals and could be done in a short series of other style frames featuring other pictures. The red ribbon could even be tied to the frame and not even in the photo itself.
____A quick piece I thought of while driving home one day. I saw the 'SLOW' sign painted on the road and thought of the phrase "Slow and Steady Wins the Race". This lead me to create some simple imagery and add an informative piece to turn it into a campaign poster.
Although completed entirely in markers and fineliners, this could easily be recreated digitally, in photography or even a series of posters based around the same concept.
