My first letterpress print
Ninja February 8th, 2008
I got less than 4 hours of sleep, but I’m now quite caffeinated. I’ve got a huge, goofy grin on my face over the thought of my first collaborative letterpress print! Well, ok, first letterpress print, ever. The lovely Ms. Ophelia Chong wrote me saying that she loved my hair portraits, so I offered to do one of her. When she sent me her photo, I knew I was going to have fun drawing. She’s got this chunky, layered look that I’m quite fond of.
I couldn’t really make out much detail from her photo, so I made some of it up. ~__^
Ophelia is getting the plate made as we speak. As for the print, she will print out the hair in one color, then add a layer wood block or metal type in another color. To top it off, she will then run the first prints through for a second color.
THANK YOU, Ophelia! ^_______^
Yay,
Ninja
