Creating a Retro Travel Poster in Affinity Publisher Using StudioLink

Hi Jo, thanks for sharing your awesome project! It looks really cool. Would you like any feedback on it?

Well it looks really great so these are just some suggestions of things to try to iterate and see if you can improve it. I would suggest seeing if there is a green that would work better with the other colors, right now the green is so bright it is drawing a lot of attention to it which I'm guessing was not your intention. You could also try adding in some highlights/shadows to the trees in order to break them up and give them more definition. Along with that I would try a version where you reduce your total number of colors, right now I count around nine total and on these posters I normally like to get that down to 3-5.

It was fun making this project. I made a poster for a local arts center located in a small town nearby.
