Arriving in the mail this week was a wonderful piece of letterpress from illustrator Peter Hoey. The letter-sized promo is most striking for it's extreme level of detail. Captured here a couple of close-ups showing the precision required to pull off an even printing of such closely-spaced wavy lines, especially on the pillowy Lettra stock. All around, a well designed and well executed piece. Now excuse me while I wipe the drool and jealously from my face.Plates are photopolymer from Boxcar; printed on a Vandercook SP-15; Crane Lettra
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteWipe your drool...and I'll wipe mine.
It's good to see one talented artist publicly recognize another for quality work. That is a true sign of humility and selflessness. Now stop drooling and start working on your own creation!
