Well, 2010 has been a great year for me, and I wanted to actually get my butt around and do a holiday card for everyone, and this is what came out. I woke up in a Constructivist type mood this morning, and wanted to share a message of building on the past to move into the future.

So happy holidays everyone, from Sizer Design + Illustration, and me, Paul Sizer, who IS Sizer Design + Illustration.
And thanks to everyone who has taken the time to watch, comment, fave, collect, purchase, and critique all the junk I've posted here. Big hugs to everyone.

Type/Design: Freehand MX
FX: PhotoShop CS2

Your poster inspired me to create my own one against German neo-nazis: [link]
I hope you don't mind the similarity to your poster. I just thought the cogweels perfectly illustrate the machinery of death which the nazis pushed on so destructively.

this is a wonderful piece, love how the words flow, beautiful photography, but i was wondering; how did u create such a wonderful aging paper effect?
PaulSizer's avatar
PaulSizerProfessional Digital Artist
Thank you. The aged paper effect is just a scan of old decayed paper on a layer placed under the poster in PhotoShop. The poster layer is then set to "Multiply" to allow the paper texture to show through.
