Posters use language to convey a message to us giving us information about an event or place and, quite often, to sell us something. This can be in pictorial form with or without the addition of lettering or words. The use of art and lettering is often very decorative and we sometimes buy copies of posters for aesthetic purposes around our homes and workplace.
So I thought I would do a journal page with two Art Posters that I have rubber stamps of. Both are in French and I sorted some more of my Paris related stamps out and did a medley all over the page. Once again I used Versamark to stamp the images but this time I used a much stronger colour of Pan Pastel over the top in blues, mauves and yellow.
You may notice that there is a ticket which has the letters 'VE' showing - yes, it is Venice and the one above it is the ticket for Paris - the romantic journey on the Orient Express between the two romantic cities. There is also an advert for 'chocolat,' 'crepes', fromage and other goodies associated with this city, the Arc de Triomphe, Tour d'Eiffel as well as some postcards and several stamps with the capital's name on.
I will leave you with my journal page
