"Under the Tent" masthead

Some more work I've been doing on the masthead I posted last time:

When finished, it will look something like the second image- I love the stripes behind the clown and am working on recreating them.


An hour or so later, it's almost finished. I'll make some more minor adjustments & add the word "Magazine" underneath the words "Under the Tent".

I think this masthead is finished. I thought the space around the tent looked bare so I added some swirls with the same gold gradient that I used on the circles in the tent & around the ellipse around the title.
