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.
