For the Antiques Roadshow T shirt image this season I presented a few ideas, the one they chose was of an old tattered broadside with the cities they will visit.
I completely got into the design of the letter forms and the stylization of the paper so much to the point of loosing the feel of the original sketch.
The client pulled me back a bit and I refocused on the sketch which they really liked for it's simplicity and energy.
I find that when jumping from a sketch to working in a vector program it's too easy to take things a bit too far and finished too fast.
