This is another piece I produced for a project on my National Diploma. We were each given a random object from a certain time period in the past 100 years and we had to produce a drawing (magazine/newspaper advertisement style) of said object in the style of the time it was around. I was given a classic telephone (I can't remember the exact name, but I know the type I was given was invented in the 1960s), so I went with the first style that came to mind.
I love Pop Art, I love the style of Andy Warhol, so if I had to represent the 1960s, I had to go with the style of one of the most iconic artists of the 1960s Pop Art genre. It was a simple sketch of a telephone I drew and used for the piece, but it seems to work really well, and even though I handed in the piece with type in the middle of it, looking back at the piece, I think it looks better without it. Less is more, as they say.
