Just somehow wanted to do a piece relating to Abe Lincoln. At first it was gonna be some article / collage type feeling. Then i realized there was a strong relationship of the objective book with the image, then came the idea of the library.
Educating simple who Lincoln was and simply educating by the whole 'go pick up a book' idea.
oh i added it. its the illustration multiplied over the old paper. the illustration had resembling tone to the old paper and so it blended well together. the book i also manipulated too.
congratulations...
it's so well composed, the types, the colors, the drawing... it's all perfect...
