Reasons for reccing: For the monthly theme of epic - this fits it in several ways! The artist has embarked an on epic project to create a poster for every televised Doctor Who story (and some of the audios for Eight and the War Doctor), and there's an epic feel to many of the pieces, too. It was hard to choose which one to rec here as there are a whole lot I love already, done in different styles, but where better to begin than at the beginning? And this might be my favourite piece so far. I love the composition, with all the negative space and the careful use of colour. It really does manage to signify the start of a truly epic adventure, and the hope that goes with the Doctor and the TARDIS.

The strokes and color bleed, as well as the geometric shapes, remind me of the Jessica Jones opening (which I adore). Beautiful, beautiful work there - thank you for reccing it!

Ooh, I only took a look at this now, but sooooo cool! And definitely very epic. Now I just want to stare at all the gorgeous poster art iin that blog. I'm not much good at saying anything about art, I just like to look at it, but I definitely like looking at this! Very atmospheric and inspiring.

I'm glad you liked it too, and I think, with art, looking is probably the important bit! (I'm not good with wording it either.)
