Day 103
I made a drawer to hold a typeface. I am taking an advanced printmaking class, we get to choose 2 "concentrations" for the semester, I chose letterpress and screen-printing, for the first half of the semester I'm doing letterpress. I think I might be the first student at school to venture into this area of printing, as a result there is a lot of set-up work for me to do, I unpacked a box with an old Kelsey Model U proofing press, along with a typeface that was scattered around the box, which is what prompted me to make this drawer ...more pictures after the jump

Day 38
Nothing too fancy today...I was asked to make a "design" that could be printed on some sort of children's Sunday school bag (that is already been colored...I think it might be a blue canvas bag...or maybe some other sort of pre-colored cloth)...9.5'' by 9.5'' in one color - I'm not entirely sure what it is supposed to be printed on, other than its blue...so I'm not sure how white would work, or if white is even an option...is there white ink? is that a dumb question? I figure that in order to print white on a dark background, it would require a ton of ink to make it a solid white....so I guess my best bet would be to make it a really light grey. I tend to favor the white on blue...so should I make a light grey on blue, instead of white?
What do you think? any changes? I have like 4 or 5 different versions of this same design...outlined trees, filled trees, white, black....etc. Please give me some suggestions...before tomorrow afternoon...

Day 33
after trying for about half an hour to make a seemless map background...I realized that a map is probably one of the hardest things to make seamless. At least the way I was doing it...so instead I made a book cover, of sorts...

Day 31
working in photoshop has reduced my 'dependence' - if you can call it that - on a grid system....not sure if that's a good or a bad thing - also; I don't care about readability.

Day 27
I thought the latest Offspring album cover could use a little bit of a remake...I listened to the cd 4 times all the way through while I was making the new cover...hopefully that helped.
edit: made the logo a bit more prominent...etc
