Salmoney - Emily #5

The challenge this week was to create an art piece based on a newspaper article. The article I chose was from the Manteca Bulletin in Manteca, CA. It was called "Salmon giveaway helps feed people." It was a very interesting piece....I'm sure. I never read it. I felt that would ... damage the creative process... or something... Anyway... I decided to play around with typography. I love fonts, and letters, and handwritten things. I don't really have very many pictures of the project as I was creating it, but here is my final piece:


The background (using the actual article):



Here is the writing with no background:



And here is another (parody) version I did especially for my mother. (She is a diehard Rushdie fan.):


Well, there you have it. ENJOY!!!
