STEFFI GRAF

Recently has ended the Wimbledon Tennis Championships.

This poster came from watching a funny tennis video where a fan yelled, "Steffi! Will you marry me?" from the crowd, to which Graf replied, "How much money do you have?"

Created in Illustrator CS6 and edited in Photoshop CS6 with grass texture.

GRID SYSTEM

Another typographic poster from my Summer to-do list.
I do enjoy dabbling in Graphic Design, however a dragging lecture prompted a short sentiment.

No offence to Schweiz, the creators of, or utilisers of the grid system. In fact, it's a very interesting and useful concept. (You can even see I've paid a little homage its origin with a cute little Swiss cross on the bottom).

Created in Adobe Illustrator and edited in Adobe Photoshop.

BOTTOM: Eggshell texture "multiply" 35% in Photoshop
