    Default coffee break poster

    Lets start an Art Deco/ Streamline Modern Thread. Here's mine.
    any subject. I come here to see your work not so much post my own so have at it, and of course, a Stereogram Art Deco would be cool too. Just sayin.
    this is my first time in creating my own font, as you can see, I didn't think it out and got in trouble with the "B".

    I tried my hand at designing a font once, thinking it wouldn't be too hard, so I can only admire your efforts and results.
    I made a small adjustment to the 'B' to get it to match the style of the other letters a bit more. By the way, the crossline in the 'E' could be a smidgeon lower.

    Tim - You think after 25 years of making stereograms I would not have an art deco image.

    Not one of my best images however.

    I like your design a lot and Boy came up with an excellent B for your text.

    Gary, Love it, knew you would come through....your post of the 2009 XaraXone featured artist made me think of some of the old threads that everyone contributed...remember the "salt and pepper shaker" thread.....that's one that comes to mind...Anyway that got me thinking of an Art Deco thread.....thanks again for the featured artist post....

    Art Nouveau, not Deco.

    thanks egg - art deco and art nouveau were what got me through art school - I always wanted to paint like turner and draw like searle but I was never that clever.... thanks for fixing the link

    @Gary - the link is art nouveau, as I said in my post... mine is an art deco take - it merits enhancement if I get the time..

    Freshly painted Modiano Cigarette Papers, Art Deco Advert (1920s). Something I used enjoy with coffee over 30 years ago! (btw the font is Crandall).
