Watching, Waiting, Dreaming

Title: Watching, Waiting, Dreaming
Format: Poster series
Found in: The Design of Dissent by Tony Kushner





























I like these posters because of the artist's integration of realism and stylistic character.  The use of line is abundant, signifying that though amazingly accurate, the designs are in fact illustrations.  This is what works about these designs.  One reason they appear so accurate is because of how often we see photographs of these people looking as they do above.  The obvious hand drawn quality is what helps distinguish these designs, sparking interest in viewers.
