Klaus Voormann


As a young artist living in Hamburg, Germany in 1960, Klaus was already well on his way to a very successful career in commercial art. Klaus had attended "Meisterschule für Grafik und Buchgewerbe" in Berlin before moving to Hamburg where he continued his education at "Meisterschule of Gestaltung". Klaus worked on freelance projects for fashion and art studios. He spent eight months in Dusseldorf working on advertising and layouts for magazines. http://www.voormann.com/biography

I love Klaus Voormanns  work and think it would look great on a t shirt as the style is quite sketchy and in a comic book style. I love the revolver work as even though its just black and white it stands out. 

Olly Moss





Olly Moss was born on January 24 in 1987 he is an English artist, graphic designer and illustrator, best known for his re imagining of movie posters. His work is regularly featured in Empire magazine.[2]
Moss was commissioned by Marvel Entertainment executives Craig Kyle and Kevin Feige to create a poster for the cast of Thor.Other notable works include the cover artwork for the Resistance 3 video game, which prompted a trailer to be created in similar style.

Olly moss's work is very bold and strong, I think his work fits movie posters very well as the poster gets your attention straight away and you know the film straight away, especially from comic books. There is also always a very strong colour in every poster which matches with the bold black colour. I love Ollys text use and think i could look at his text style for my t shirt design, as the bottom pictures show soft et striking text.
