Mmm, Bacon

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009


I like bacon, and I reckon a lot of you reading this do too. If you don’t, that’s cool, but this little piggy in the print sure loves it. This is also print number 12 of the year, it feels really strange to think I’m already almost 25% done with this challenge.

Two colors, 8″ by 12″

Available for $15 in the Weekly Print store!

Also, a big thank you to those who chimed in on my last post. I’ll work up a DIY post on my pre-press process and post it soon. Thanks for watching!

The Sea Bastard

Thursday, March 19th, 2009


Last summer, I created the character of the Sea Bastard for an art show at Tender Loving Empire. I have wanted to use him on some other things since, so why not a print?

Utter Nonsense

Saturday, March 14th, 2009


Whew, just under the wire this week, sorry for the delay. I was reading a bit of Ludwig Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus over the last week, and all I can say is that this is what came out of me. Just out of curiosity, I did a search of anagrams of “Utter Nonsense” and some of them are pretty great, so I might make a companion piece for next week, which will hopefully be done earlier in the week than this one.

Ghosts

Thursday, March 5th, 2009


Something a little different for print number nine. About two years ago, while fooling around in a college class, I doodled the inspiration for this image. The original has been hanging in my bathroom ever since and always garners a few chuckles from visitors to my apartment. So, I decided it was time to make it a little more widely available.

ZAP

Wednesday, February 25th, 2009


I wanted something simple and graphic for the first larger Weekly Print of the year, and I thought this would make a good capping off of my month of prints with lightning bolts (did you notice?). Plus, you just can’t go wrong with the two-color combo of red and black, am I right?

Available for $20 in the Weekly Print store!

Also, I’m kind of tempted to print up some shirts with this design on it, white and black on red shirts. It would also give me a chance to cover my shirt printing process. Anyone interested?

Lastly, if you are coming here via UPPERCASE or Pitch Design Union: welcome to The Weekly Print. You may want to click the two links in the right sidebar to find out more about me or this project. If you’re not coming from those two sites, you should go check them out right now.

No Hurries, No Worries

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009


Has it really been seven weeks already, folks? I decided I wanted to do another lettering heavy print this week, so I picked a phrase that I doodled in my sketchbook a few weeks ago, ran a little bit of a concept over it, and ta-da, it’s a print! It turned out a little more Andy Smith than I had initially intended, but I like the look and I like the phrase, and it’s pretty true to how I live my life.

PS: Anyone notice my theme for February’s prints so far?

It’s Alive!

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009


For one of my college classes, I am (re)reading Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, which is obviously the inspiration for this, my sixth print of 2009. Using both the text of the original novel, as well as the most famous line from the many movie versions, it is also my take on the differences in the way the monster has been portrayed once pop culture got a hold of the story.

8 by 12 inches
Two colors: both green in origin

For those of you looking for screenprinting info: I’ll be making a post covering my registration method for multiple color prints later this week.

Bolt Kitty

Thursday, February 5th, 2009


This will be a rare week where the print has no lettering on it. I did a slightly larger version of this image for a print exchange through Pacific Northwest College of Art, and I liked it, so I cropped it down and printed it up for the Weekly Print. The cat’s name is Elvis, a super-friendly black cat that used to sit outside my apartment door and come in and play every once in a while until his owners moved away. The last two inches of his tail had been broken, so the tip of it was all crooked and cute.

Three colors: red, mustard yellow, and blue black

Long Arm of the Law

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009


Hey, everyone! This is print number four of The Weekly Print, so one month down, eleven to go! I think this is my new favorite on the year so far, what do you think?

Three colors: blue, transparent yellow, and dark brown. Later this week, or this weekend, I am going to do another DIY screenprinting post that covers the basics of my actual printing process, so make sure and come back soon. And, of course, if you like this print…

Available for $15 in the Weekly Print store!

Hey You, Yes You.

Monday, January 19th, 2009


I hope everyone is having a wonderful third week of the year of The Weekly Print, I know I am. The lettering part of this print has been in my sketchbook for almost a year now. I’ve always wanted to do something with it, so I cleaned it up a bit, and there you have it. And yes, that is a squirrel.

Two colors: slightly metallic blue and transparent yellow.
