I make collages and word posters from vintage and retro illustrations and images in the public domain. Here's my latest piece, 'J is for Journey'.

Had a lot of fun making this one, a lot of good words that begin with J 😊

Thank you! Some great suggestions, and I'll definitely include Hieroglyph and Himalayas!

A lot of the others I already have. Think I'll save Hohlraum for possible future German posters 😅 Also think radiation thermodynamics might be a bit outside of my target group 🤔

Henrietta Lacks — a culture in a petri dish, maybe? You're right, probably a bit too grim, again with the target group in mind 😅

I'm trying to include Greek mythology a lot (even considering a whole poster with just that theme), but not sure if Hyperion is well known enough. I do love Dan Simmons' "Hypreion Cantos", so maybe it's justified. The way I curate the images/words is definitely very colored by my personal preferences 😊
