Skiing, Chamonix, the French alps.

A recent ski holiday to the French alps has inspired me to (attempt to) replicate some of the brilliant traditional French ski posters and postcards that you see in all the wonderfully tacky gift shops.


The posters are simple, yet so effective. Limited, bright colours, with eye-catching bold shapes and typography - I think these are awesome. So I've had a crack at re-creating one of these with my little colour co-ordinated skier. I also plan on doing a series, and if I can produce anything half as striking as the originals, I will be happy.
