    Ankhor: ah the spoon thing ... good one.
    I plan to make this a monthly play and challenge.

    I think everyone can join in - no matter what their skill level.
    You don't have to spend a long time to get a particular effect and look in the drawing that requires a lot of work.

    You just need to think of the idea and do a simple drawing to convey your idea for the poster. Minimalist!

    Love the idea. As a sweetener I've always loved the late 1960's film titled "If.." starring Malcolm McDowell, which is pretty minimalist as a film title in it's own right

    I had an idea that didn't require any drawing on my part, just added the text.

    Egg: Yup. That's minimalist to the max!

    Chris: I like your thinking. Why do the work, when the work has already been done!

    Firstly, I don't believe that.

    Secondly, the whole idea of this, is to be able to think of an idea and then do a simple minimalist drawing.

    Look through the thread and you will see that the drawings are all reasonably simple.
    It's the idea you need to come up with and then present that as simply as you want.

    If you haven't already done so, look at Su's first post. Post #13.
    It's brilliant in its concept and simply drawn.

    I hope you will join in, next month as well.

    We are looking for a Minimalist Movie Poster, for the topic chosen each month.

    Well, Acorn.

    I can see my name in there, but, Apart from that, I'm having trouble seeing the pun.
    You may have to explain a bit more!

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.
