I like the left one better just because it has some personality. The right one is professional but more in a calculated sense, like something you would see on a science exhibit sign.

I highly favour the second one, the first one takes too much away from your painting.

I would honestly consider the first one.

I feel the second one is to bland and the title of the show is too extended from the information. I feel people would look at the picture and disregard the information cause its not as aesthetically pleasing.

The first one is well layed out and I think will be fine to print on 11x17. Everything is alligned well and weighted properly. It also looks really good.



Although it may take a little away from the painting, you need people to still have the want of figuring out where it comes from and possibily where to go to find more of it. I think the first poster does a better job of looking nice and leading the viewer to look at the painting as well as draw the eye to the information.

With that said I'd pick poster 1.

no1 but sharpen the painting as in no2

final version?

i tried but cant seem to get the same level of sharpness as dan :S
