Brief one: create a poster with a message and display it (this formed part of my window display for VE Day 75th anniversary celebrations in my street)

Lockdown just got a whole lot more fun with the delivery of an Alpha-set from @will.mower ... it prints an absolute treat - lovely texture, and so many possibilities.

Will set a series of four briefs for those of us who’ve bought an Alpha-set, and my responses are shown above. A really fun way to kickstart using the set and amazing to see so many different responses posted on Instagram (#alpha-set and #alpha-set).
