Every time I see a boom box I think of this song...(There's more to Life then this) I added Maya Angelou because she speaks words like others sing them.

I have given credit to the proper people (Bjork and Maya Angelou)

NO SBS. Basic bevel and gradient work.

Placing the text like you would see on a sheet of paper during a forensics reading competition that might take place in high school.

If this inspires one person to go out and listen to this song, or read one page of Maya's poetry... I'VE DONE WHAT I SET OUT TO DO... :)

Fille..you are honest and not confrontational, and for that I thank you... I work with text non stop, posters, advertisements, full space wall advertisement murals, fundraiser ticket production, and those obnoxious postcards you can get printed by the thousands.. sooner or later it would have to spill into my art work... I sometimes create the most amazing ads for Pool Tournaments..then they make me put words over everything I've done LOL, this was my chance to put words I FEEL are beautiful into my art..that's all. thanks for the comment DUDER PIE Reply »
