While it was snowing outside over the Christmas holidays, Ruth Rowland was keeping warm by working on a new set of seven posters for the successful, on-going island of Aruba tourism campaign.

The subjects were selected from the inhabitants of this idyllic island, photographed and then asked to provide Ruth with samples of their handwriting.

Taking these samples as a starting point Ruth developed a style of lettering combined with spot illustrations for each poster that reflects something of their personalities and interests.

“With such a wide range of characters it was an interesting and challenging job!”
