When Lew posted the film posters yesterday I really enjoyed seeing them and I had the idea to take some of my old pictures and have a play around with them to create posters (totally fictional of course). The lettering has been added digitally.  It was fun, I might have a go at a film poster or two as well. Not to be taken too seriously but an enjoyable diversion.

I love them Lew, they really are works of art. To get away from trains............. Totally made up using a couple of my paintings although they were real films.

I do like the old railway posters, a reminder of childhood trips to the seaside. Nice selection chaps!

You have been enjoying making these.  Yes Tessa  I loved the posters on Trains.  I traveled from Lancashire to Wales frequently I was at school there and saw lots of them. I have just stolen this one from a Google site.
