In my communication design class we had to pick a festival and design 3 posters for it taking abstract, symbolic, and representational approaches. This was my representational approach. I really like my image in this one. The bg colour looks a bit weird but it was intended to be printed on cream paper so I overlaid it in photoshop to give you an idea of what it looks like printed.
For the image, I traced an image from ~dazzle-stock and then painted it with watered down acrylics. I have another version of it that I might post later but this was my favorite. The type is 'Birth of a Hero', 'Dirty and Classic' (both available for free online) and Helvetica. I realize the info under the title is too small to read at this size but the final printout was 20x30".
