Type as Art


For last week's type journal, the task at hand was to find "type as art;" which pretty much translates to art for art's sake. No advertising or graphic design needed for this journal. Around my house, as seen in an earlier post in my journal, my mom has a lot of decorative pictures that include type. This one, taken on Thursday December 3rd at around 11:00 at night, is one I found particularly interesting. The simple "Bears" headline pretty much sums up the contents of the painting. I thought the simplicity was intriguing, and it is not promoting or selling anything. The painting is just simply for decoration: art for art's sake.
