2D Forum January Theme: Typography
I felt like doing another image before bed, perhaps for the January Theme, but felt utterly uninspired at first and kept telling myself not to bother tonight. Then somehow inspiration struck and this piece evolved into being. It's all good practice :-)
Photoshop only. The font is AgitProp. The quote is of course the famous classic from Albert Einstein:
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science"
Thank you for taking a look, and your feedback and criticism are always appreciated :-)

Wonderful! The image and typography meld beautifully, and I love the details and restrained surreality.

It looks like someone sitting at a computer trying to jog out a work as the words flow through them. The stairway to dreamland is reflected in the main body of the person laboring under the weight of fatigue. No music is playing in the background because of the golden tones, for the worker works in silence.

I'm not quite sure why I like this - but I do! Very imaginative combination of graphics and text

Nice use of the text here. Good was to accentuate the shapes actually. I actually like the brightness of the text, cuz it gives it a very fresh feel.

Ha! I see you've really got the type bug! Your illustration certainly goes well with Einstein's classic quote. Most important, the type is perfectly integrated into the design. I can imagine this on a billboard. Now this would turn a few heads :-)

Knowledge sows the seeds of mystery. The more we know, the less we know. That's why I am a Discover magazine addict...my ponderings of evolution, physics, alternate universes, etc. are what keeps me sane!

Synapse
It sure is! Brings a whole new meaning to navel-gazing :-D

The words are visually quite shocking, braking the harmony of the rest of the image. I feel like rather than building the image, or going with it, they are challenging it. I'm not sure if that is what you were going for or not. Also, it seems the picture itself could stand to be a bit more mysterious, to highlight the quote. I'd say jsut make the background darker or something.
