I’m starting off this #kayfabetober with this relatively high res Jack Kirby sketch I found on the inter webs a little while ago. I liked the image so much that I decided to convert it to a blue line and ink it. It’s my first time ever inking someone else, what do you think?

This is the last posting featuring Mr. H. Trentham. I finally added some watercolor paint to this experimental print that I did awhile ago.
I taped some paper scraps I had laying around, sent them through the press, and rearranged them once the paper was dry.

Here’s a fun design project that I did for my local watering hole, Pino’s. It’s the Pino’s Holiday Music Jamboree! If you’re in Highland Park, NJ pick one up at the bar or order one online at http://bit.ly/holidayjamboree

And if anyone wants design help with any future CDs, or better yet, vinyl records, let me know!

I did a little experimenting on my @el_gancho_taller small press. I taped some paper scraps I had laying around, sent them through the press, and rearranged them once the paper was dry. I kind of like the result. Now, I have to glue it to a board and maybe add some water colors.

I finally got some time to make some prints on the small press that I bought from @el_gancho_taller a little while ago. The prints didn’t turn out too badly for my first time using this press. I also used an Akua black ink. I’m not sure that I loved working with this ink that much, it was really kind of soupy. Maybe it’s just a matter of working with the ink more? We shall see...

This is a car that I started to work on in class.

This is a car that I started to work on in class. The assignment was to create a stylized car. I decided to base my car on a Chevy Bel Air that I found parked on the side of the road. I took a few photos and then altered the side view in Photoshop to a rough version of what I wanted the car model to eventually look like and then started my work in Maya. Updates to come...

This lone print was printed on a piece of Frontline Paper which is made at @frontlineartsstudio
.
.
The paper is handmade from military uniforms. For more info about Frontline Paper, how to purchase it, and how & why it’s made, go to frontlinearts.org.
.
.
The drawing and print are based on an old English cigarette card featuring Robert Russel Pursell. He was a Scottish left back who played for Liverpool FC from 1911 to 1920.

This is my 2nd attempt at a solarplate print made

This is my 2nd attempt at a solarplate print made at @frontlineartsstudio but this time I exposed the solar plate to film that was printed out from an inkjet printer from a Photoshop file.
.
.
.
The Photoshop image was a composite of a photo that I took and a drawing of the clouds from that photo.
.
.
.
Pictured above was most of the process from photo to drawing to Photoshop composite file to film print to plate and to the final print. (Start from the photo on the far right and work your way to the left)
.
.
The Photoshop composite and print are based on a photo that I shot Griffin Park, the home of Brentford FC. The plane was on its way to Heathrow Airport.

My first attempt at a hand-drawn solarplate print

My first attempt at a hand-drawn solarplate print this past Saturday at a class that I took at @frontlineartsstudio
The prep process (go to solar plate.com for more info) is much easier than etching with the added advantage of being able to use all sorts of drawing tools - pencils, markers, brushes, inks - in the creation of your image. I used a pencil along with a pen & ink wash. The print came out okay but the ink wash part of the image didn’t come out as dark as I had hoped. That could’ve been a result of the ink wash on my vellum being too light or the exposure of the plate being too long (I think I got that right).

I did this screenprint at @svaprintshop in a class taught by @sara.varon around 5 years ago and it always felt unfinished to me. A little while ago I decided to add a mouth using a linoleum cut. I think I made the right decision. Posted here is the after and before photos.
