WHOA - broadside & portfolio

WHOA. We are working on the letterpress broadside and limited edition portfolio. The cool thing about this project is that in addition to the new book of poems, the broadside will have an original poem by her that is not in the book and an artwork print by her brother Ward James Brykit who is one of the creative forces behind the movie Rango. How cool is that?

A Strange Kind of Sympathy

Anthony Velasquez is a local artist who creates amazing paintings. We worked with him to make a piece to go with his show at the Lisa Sette Gallery in Scottsdale. He was fun to work with because he wanted hand set type to go with the vintage images he paints. The show - A Strange Kind of Sympathy - was amazing!
