Work in progress: Keep on running letterpress and silkscreen print

Here is a sneak peek of my current project combining letterpress, digital design and silkscreen printing, this is at the pre-silkscreen stage of the process.

Inspired by Brian Cox, Adam Buxton & Joe Cornish

Today is day two of my month away from work, so far I have seen the final Harry Potter film, eaten 4 ice lollies, swam in the lido, eaten 3 Frankfurters and created lots of illustrations.

This morning has included lots of laughing whilst listening to the Best Of Adam & Joe on iplayer. Here's an illustration inspired by them talking about the physicist Brian Cox. A couple of close ups below.

I designed a new typeface

The A-Z of Patterns 2008

The A-Z of Patterns is a book showcasing patterns I created using each letter of the alphabet set in Times New Roman and then in Verdana.

Each typeface has it's own section in the book, as you can see in the top photo.

*Update* There are more recent off-shoots from this project in other posts here & here.
