La Femme

Fantastic!!

I love the work of Polish designer Roman Cieslewicz (1930 - 1996), and this piece is a re-creation of his poster for La Femme est l’avenir de l’europe. Roman's bold use of colored lines with rough photography is stunning and I really wanted to work with something in his visual style, in an attempt to make it my own.

You can check out more of Roman Cieslewicz's work via Alk1's Flickr stream.

Great! I don't know if I like the eye, but I surely do love the yellow light contouring her face.
