Letterpress design


Another letterpressed design, with the image dominating the overall design instead of the type. I carved the fighting roosters out of a linoleum block and used 10 line Gothic Extra Condensed wood type for the lettering. I printed 9 total on beige colored BFK paper. Also on a flat-bed cylinder Vandercook press.


Letterpressed broadsheet






Letterpressed broadsheet printed with a flat-bed cylinder Vandercook proof press. The type used was 30pt Garamond Light and the paper used is grey BFK. The quote was taken from Cormac McCarthy's novel Blood Meridian.

       I carved the image of Death riding a horse from a linoleum block mounted on wood. This is the block after printing.

The Magbar show


 

This design was mostly inspired by the work of artist Horsebites (Richard Minino) and Ivan Bilibin. Drawn with ink on Bristol. Used Photoshop for color, text, and touch-ups.

The County Line



Ink on Bristol paper. This is my second attempt at trying to copy the style of an old engraving or woodcut, only with pen and ink.

Below is the final product in the form of a cardboard CD case. The album was recorded at Nic Braune's home by Brian Seong. The layout was finalized by Kyle Ellis.
