Street art: miserable sorcerer
September 12, 2017
Another composition of the street tar, words from the horse, and some cool old mug shots. I love doing whatever I want with the type.

Type Collage: Truth
January 2, 2017
A collage kind of thing that started with a photo close up of some public art, a photo I took of a Buddha statue, and some wood type.

Some more collage-ey things with type and maps and old images.
Type specimens 1

Playing around with found old type specimens and some other digital stuff, made into a collage of sorts. The type looks alms like it’s on old tissue paper, I love the transparency.
Hand drawn lettering

Playing around with a random quote I heard on WTF podcast about Jimi Hendrix, I drew this out on paper, scanned it, drew in Illustrator, and added some textures in Pshop.

These were done as an exercise, with mixed results. They started as pencil sketches, then traced in illustrator and finished out in pshop. I used both painted on textures and some stuff found online. Text added from a book I’m trying to read (as if these are the dude’s names), set in LetterMpress.

The last one I did, I cut those painted leaves up in a 1000 pieces and did some free form compositions. I added some found old paper and the LetterMpress set type on top, all in pshop. Again, the idea came from here, highly recommended.

This one, like the previous one, references that dub step song I heard. I used the Art Rage app on a Surface Pro for the painting, then composited some found old paper and LetterMpress set type in pshop. Inspiration for this image from here.

At some point while working on these images (the project came from here)I heard a dub step tune (listen here), and felt an affinity to some lines in the song. This image uses the leave cut out (I loved the shadows created when these were stacked up) and composited a pastel crayon drawing on top, along with type set in LetterMpress. Dig it.
