I found this image online it is done by a freelance web designer. his name is Mustafa he is from london and studied web design there. the work was presented in a portfolio web page displaying the artists work like an advertisment. he uses the text to describe James Brown using adjectives and words from his songs to form the shape of him. this piece is visually intresting because it shows depth and creates facial features by just using text. Mustafa uses many design elements in this piece. he uses line, size variation, direction, contrast, hierarchy, and unity. it is a very balanced piece that has an iconic figure well represented. The type relates to this image because of the funky feel of it, almost a 70's vibe u get from it and the way it form James Browns facial features.

This is a piece by Takashi Murakami called "Mr. Dob", this is one of his signature pieces. It can be found in alot of his work in different shapes sizes and color. He is a famous artist from Japan, some people compare him to Andy Warhol because he will put his name on anything to sell it. He is one of my favorite artists i have a book with this image but i got this off google images. Murakami uses type as a design element in this piece the D and B r used as the inner ear outline, than he uses the O as the outline for Mr. DOB's face. This piece is very interesting and eye catch because of the size of the figures head and the colors he uses. He uses many design principles such as line, shape, size, and color. He relates the use of type with a strong visual image by making it the same color, shape and same style he handled the figure. This is a visually strong image.
