Anti-War Poster

My poster was the Lady Liberty holding a sword and shield. The sword had the words "be prepared" depicted on it. This shows that the U.S. is ready to fight and won't back down. The enemy better be prepared. If I was to change this war poster to an anti-war poster, I would first change the sword to a torch, just like The Statue of Liberty usually has. On the side of the torch, I would write "be peaceful". Then I would change the shield it is holding which has a U.S. seal on it. Instead of the seal, I would make it into a peace sign. Then on top of the poster where it says "USA BONDS" I would make it say "USA PEACE". The colors would be changed from dark colors like brown and dark gold to lighter colors like light green and yellow. There would be a lot of birds and clouds instead of dark smears of paint in the background. The whole poster would be much happier and instead of convincing people to buy war bonds, it would express world peace. On the very bottom of the poster, there is a block of stone that has the words "Weapons for Liberty" engraved into it. On my poster, it would say "Weapons for World Peace" instead.
