One Horse Town
A stunning one colour screen print that combines really nice illustration with a cracking typeface. It’s interesting to note the composition of this piece which uses the rule of thirds. The hands, which are covering the eyes, are exactly on the top horizontal third. Seeing as it’s human nature to look at the eyes and the intersections created by the rule of thirds, this creates a very strong focal point.
The rule of thirds is also used to split the illustration from the type. The illustration dominates the top two thirds with the type sitting nicely in the bottom third which I feel creates a nicely balanced piece of design.
