This was an expressive letterpress project I recently completed. It was such an experience to use actual lead type, to deal with each individual letter made out of metal. I loved the process, it was so much fun to get hands on, close and personal with a heavy duty letterpress, and implement design. I also really love the quote. It is one of the great ironies of life that constraints are what keep us free, and that embracing constraints can make it possible to soar.
This will be a online journal/portfolio to post my work, get feedback, and share in the fantastic world of Art and Design. I am open to critique, and excited to see where things go.

Short Story Typography
The Noticer by Andy Andrews is a fantastic read. Anyone who hasn't read it yet, it is a powerful short book. This is a recent project in class that I did, in which I designed an excerpt from the beginning of the book. Jones, an old man, is a noticer. In the design I highlighted the things Jones sees, so that the reader can start to see the perspective from which Jones sees. Enjoy
