Typography Poster 1: Sacred



The S and the C in this image are hand drawn in another piece. I used the S and the C and decided to use jam from my Jam and Crackers piece and the smudge tool to colour the letters in. It didn't occur to me at the time to just take a picture of plain jam which would have been useful. I then used the pen tool to make slices down the edges and sides of the letters and then I used a grainy brush to rub out inside of the slices. I then used the pen to cut out parts of jam jars (which aren't that noticeable) in the background with some other colours to make it less plain. But after doing all of this and adding slight brush to the initials I wanted to make a word out of the two letters. So I used the word 'Sacred' as the finished piece. Even though the word has nothing to do with Jam, Jars or any other random pen tool structure I just happen to think that 'Sacred' is a very beautiful word.

Below are the photos I used to create the piece....
