Featured Artist
Designs Poster with ‘Retro’ Twist
Posters for Oxford’s annual Double Decker Arts Festival
generally depict a red bus as the focus. The featured artist for the 2013 festival used his artistic license
to spice things up.
This is Thomas Grosskopf's fourth year at the festival. He said he understood why many
artists focus on the bus, but he wanted to take the
poster down a different path. His first idea, “Terror on the Square”
depicted aliens abducting people from Oxford’s town
square. Grosskopf said the arts council wanted something a little
more “retro." The current design shows a woman
holding a paint palette and brush.

True love doesn't happen right away; it's an ever-growing process. It develops after you've gone through many ups and downs, when you've suffered together, cried together, laughed together. See the link below for more info.
