Mark Storey - 12+ years as a Graphic Designer in Croydon, United Kingdom, huge Star Wars fan.

I chose this because it was Star Wars, which I like, and the image is completely made with Vader's quotes. This designer had several years worth of blogs with his interpretation of the Star Wars movie posters and character images.  I looked at several text and word art images before residing on this one.  I found one that was a recreation of one of the Wicked posters, done all in text, that I really liked, but I couldn't find any information on who had made it, so I continued to look.  When I came across this I liked the darkness of it and how all the quotes were used to make the image.  I believe the text forming the image gives it something of a pictograph feel, because even if you are not familiar with Darth Vader's dialogue, most everyone recognizes the his image.  He used a sans serif typeface to create the image, bolding some words to add shading or lightness as needed.
