I make collages and word posters from vintage and retro illustrations and images in the public domain. Here's my latest piece, 'J is for Journey'.

Had a lot of fun making this one, a lot of good words that begin with J ๐Ÿ˜Š

Jane would be a great addition, but I try to avoid people who are still alive, keeping the theme as close to retro/vintage as possible. That said, there are a few images of her in the public domain, although no illustrations that I can find.

Jackalope would have been a great addition, sorry I missed that one! Maybe I should replace the Jackrabbit, or take one of the jars out (although intentional) in a future edition ๐Ÿค”

Sometimes I just miss words, and sometimes it's a question of available material. I have extensive word lists in spreadsheets for each letter, compiled from a bunch of sources, but there will always be stuff that slips through the cracks ๐Ÿ˜…

I heard that the Jurassic Ark didn't actually sink, but got sucked down the maelstrom and ended up in the hollow core at the center of the earth ๐Ÿฆ–๐Ÿฆ•๐ŸŒด

Thank you for the feedback and compliment ๐Ÿ˜Š
