Posters are sometimes designed in a series. Either for a single event, like our Arbor day, and sometimes for a series of related events, like Contra Costa Arbor Day, Groundhog Day, Earth Day, May Day
What makes any given series work as a series are the correspondences between the visual elements within them.
We can use these series examples to hone our skills at identifying graphic design principles and formal elements.
