Images of art work:
These posters came through a complex process beginning with the creation of hand-rubbed relief prints from basic lumberyard 4 x 4’s. The individual relief prints were then scanned and used to create film for screen printing. The wood was then burned, meticulously ground and added to the ink mixture to literally impart wood into all aspects of every print. The result is a poster that reflects the many ways we process trees, including cutting it into commercial lumber,
pressing it into paper and burning it into
charcoal.
My view:
I like how his work is a lot
different to most and despite being modern, it also has rustic feel and look to it. However his work does not stand out and seems to have the same pattern and effect for each piece, meaning it will not catch the eye of a
viewer and will not appeal as much as
other art works.
