Berlin is the Heart of Germany

A Berlin radio station asked for a design expressing the slogan, "Berlin is the heart of Germany," for postcards to be distributed en masse around the city. Here is what I came up with:

Drawing of a fierce bear holding a flaming heart, by St. Rhinocéros / Ciana Pullen

Design for "Berlin is the heart of Germany" postcard, by St. Rhinocéros / Ciana Pullen. It's a digitally altered watercolor sketch based on the city's iconic bear from the Berlin flag, with a slight Temple of Doom influence.

Comments Policy:

No sexist, racist and offensive slurs, threats or violent rhetoric. Though this is not a "safe space," you must be respectful to others. Disagreement, though, is encouraged. Finally, I don't want to spend my time re-inventing the wheel, so this blog *begins* with the assumption that various social oppressions are real and valid; that art movements post-1880 are, in fact, "art;" and that any artist who has taken the time and expense to plan, make, market and show their art-- no matter how shocking, expensive, or crude in appearance-- is deserving of consideration. This is not up for debate. Have fun!
