NEWER

Five letterpress printed versions of the phrase - never gets old - in diferent configurations of my custom AGP Grotesque sans serif alphabet and hand cut letters. The animation fades from image to to image through the series, repeating endlessly.

Five variations on a theme

Animation of prints made during cleanup of multiple colors of excess ink in streaks and scratches with cropped letterforms from other printing projects, the images are cropped into a horizontal rectangle and a noisy and frenetic texture is the result.

Making textures

distorted image of my face wearing a homemade protctive mask crudely hand embroidered with a bible verse: Amos monoline grotesk style alphabet> <p> Amos 4:10, I SENT AMONG YOU A PESTILENCE. An attempt to put an ironically humorous spin on the necessity of wearing a mask in everyday life and inspired bthe work of quilt artist Rosie Lee Tomkins.
