The series of four images below using one word and images were all created by hand. I love the old 80's style graphics that look really good and in those times most of the stuff was produced by hand. Photocopying in an excellent way to produce a grainy effect on images and I also love to cut paste things together, it's how I got started designing after all.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 238); text-decoration: underline;"><br /></span></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjImDjXRHhI/AAAAAAAAACw/8-iUzaZqZHY/s1600-h/hp_scanDS_96121027332"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 254px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjImDjXRHhI/AAAAAAAAACw/8-iUzaZqZHY/s320/hp_scanDS_96121027332" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346377550116494866" /></a><br /><div><div style="text-align: center;">"Bright ideas"</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Using the influence of 80's graphic's I enjoy producing one off pieces. </div><div style="text-align: center;">This is a personal project which started off as a university project and then I just couldn't stop.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjIl4LQB9uI/AAAAAAAAACo/08-SASJ8uhU/s1600-h/hp_scanDS_96121033138"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjIl4LQB9uI/AAAAAAAAACo/08-SASJ8uhU/s320/hp_scanDS_96121033138" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346377354665129698" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: center;">"Bright Eyez"</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;">Another variation of Bright Ideas - Photocopying using different things like the chalk for the text and accertate for images then overlaying them on different coloured paper.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjIlvBrriMI/AAAAAAAAACg/FNFarVPv7-A/s1600-h/hp_scanDS_961210243025"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 276px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjIlvBrriMI/AAAAAAAAACg/FNFarVPv7-A/s320/hp_scanDS_961210243025" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346377197477923010" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I cannot even add up how many different variations of this I actually did in the end but this particular one is done using my favourite colours  </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjIldAkOvtI/AAAAAAAAACY/-0QSNZzxNRc/s1600-h/hp_scanDS_961210294520"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 212px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_JDdSPMuyhEI/SjIldAkOvtI/AAAAAAAAACY/-0QSNZzxNRc/s320/hp_scanDS_961210294520" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346376887940595410" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">"Fall"</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Drawn by hand using a fine tip black line pen I went on to produce this on a a1 size canvas for a friend as a house warming gift.
