Rejects

Some rejects from the ol' day job. The idea was to fill a classroom set with various educational posters. It was a ton of fun, but in the end, they were deemed a little too young and golden book-ish for a highschool classroom. Glad they can find a home here on the blog, instead of the trash bin.

These are great! Love the fruit and the food pyramid. Maybe they could find a home in a kindergarten classroom. Although, they seem to fit the maturity level of most high schoolers...

hehe... these are awesome. My favorite are the marching fruit. Reminds me of the films they'd show in public school

It's amazing how some GREAT designs can be classified as 'rejects'. Very nice design throughtout. The fourth one down, remind me of some music books I had growing up.

Great job all around Steve.

Hey Steve, thanks for the kind words you posted on my blog. I've been a fan of yours for a long time (as it is sometimes shamelessly obvious in my designs).

These are great! The fruit and pyramid are especially good.
