2055.Learnin' to land? Poster/Print Poster
Acrylic on raw canvas painting. Created as a hand-painted t-shirt design first in the summer of 1989 in the park I used to set up in by the sundial overlooking Great Harbor in Woods Hole, Ma. I took a day off and catching a ride on a friends sailboat over to Martha's Vineyard for the day i rode my bike to the other side of the island to the beach at Katama and as i was walking passed this young brother wearing a grey t -shirt i happened to notice the little silk-screened design on his breast pocket was a black silhouette on a yellow/orange background of someone fishing. Realized what made that design work was the contrast of the yellow/orange and black of the silhouette so i determined to use that same element to express that which i've always been most passionate about.: learning to fly! The next day i painted the first attempt using these elements called "dancin' man?" which was the same design but from the view point of being behind the man on the edge. A few days later i created Learning to Fly, then the Bluedge or nightime version then Daedulus. "Learnin' to fly" became the most popular image i've ever done and it wasn't until 2007 nearly 19 years later when i started to learn how to fly via a computer flight simulator that i realized i should probably do a piece about how important learning to land is to learning to fly.

I was so amazed at how this all turned out. Everyone who attended the funeral was in awe of how beautiful it was made.
And I owe it all to Zazzle. I wouldn’t have done it better myself not to mention I wouldnt have time to do it.
The great part of it all was they had templates that was catered to my needs and that I could use it in ways I wanted to use to resize it my way. It took some time but I was happy it turned out great. I did 100 photos, 89, 66 photos (I think) lol templates.
The only suggestion is that the templates, before sending through would tell you of errors like; saying please revise or resize it again for any photos that is not perfectly well sitting or not show it’s cutting off some of them and where it tells you there’s duplicates.
Staring, placing and resizing all 100 + pictures into the template can be tiresome and overwhelming and it makes my eyes blurred that I can’t tell if they’re cutting off or overlapping or duplicates.
Overall I am very pleased and will be using Zazzle again should the need arises.
Thank you Zazzle.
Altogether I’ve done 3 collages 1 profile picture and couple pictures with 1 frame and yet this is my first time ordering as a 1 time customer.
Prices were very reasonable and accommodating to my finances.

Fun bright artwork that really captures the mood I’m going for! Pop art with cyberpunk energy. A little sweet but also spicy. This art is the perfect size and vibe for our art gallery wall. The printing looks great, high quality with vibrant colors! I went with the semi-gloss finish, which adds a little extra shine and thickness to the print making it excellent for high-traffic areas like the staircase wall.
