Text 6: A canvas of inspirational quotes and sayings from my kitchen wall

Audience: People who would buy the canvas, possibly its more likely women would than men, age range could be anything from twenties to eighties.

Purpose: To create something artistic using words that a person would want to hang in their house, maybe it is entertaining or inspiring or has a personal meaning to an owner of the piece.

Format: Printed canvas

Interesting language features: Each saying is in a different font and in different sized lettering, but the colour of all the words is the same, perhaps to tie it all together into a picture.

How does this text exert power? :  A lot of the sayings are very powerful in themselves, for example “the world is your oyster” is a very powerful saying. Also, the way some of the sayings are displayed larger than others makes them stand out more and therefore more powerful too.
