those first two are part of a big A1 piece. which was too big for my scanner. so. i do not have a camera.

basically, the bottom starts with audrey hepburn there, with the bottle of vod, with goldfish jumping out and swallows and butterflies fluttering around near and an eagle flying up and the eagle's wing starts being part of someone's face and then there is this big collage of people and stuff in a sort of mass of... faces and stuff. david ben gurion is featured in the full version.

I like your sense of contrast - something I uttely lacked until not so long ago and I still need to do a lot of progress with.

You got such a definate style going on here, and I love stark colour contrasts like this, it's such a simple technique but it's so effective
