Peter Strain - Pan's Labyrinth

Pan’s Labyrinth Artist:Peter Strain 

The mood of this picture seems to be dark and mysterious due to the use of colour i.e. the blue’s, blacks, browns and greens. There is a fair amount of colour used however it is limited to those dull shades. The writing is eye catching because of the contrast of white letters on a dark background. Because the letters are going down in a triangular shape, your eye is then drawn to the picture at the top. This is creatively incorporated into the text to create part of the image. The use of swirls in the background makes the image look claustrophobic and possessive of the writing.
