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 😊

Didn’t see the captions at first and was like: “Ah, yes. Jragon.” 😂 Lovely work, so much creativity in one place!
J is for Jinosaur, you can’t tell me otherwise
I actually had a J dinosaur on my list, but couldn’t find a useable illustration of one. I’ll check my lists, see if I can find it 👍
That left Jurassic; was struggling a bit to figure out how to illustrate that, until I came up with the park/ark pun. Obviously no illustrations of that, but I managed to collage one together from 5 different source images, and I’m very happy with the result 😁🦖🚢
Edit: there are actually a lot of dinosaurs that begin with J, but no luck with finding PD illustrations of any of them.
Dinosaurs are notoriously tricky in regards to public domain stuff, extremely slim pickings 😓🦕
Haha, I really like the Jurassic Ark and think you did a great job. I was just joking around. Great poster!
It’s one of my favorite parts of doing these, getting little puns and jokes in there — glad you noticed, that makes it all worth it! 😍 A lot of the little details go unnoticed 😅
Yeah, Jragon! 😅
I sometimes have to be a bit creative in how I
shoehornfinesse the various words into the posters 😁 I often find something really great, but for a letter I’ve already published, so it’s a question of figuring out how to make it work for a different letter 😊
