FEATURED WORK

I continue to try to harmonize hand-cut letterforms with image. (After all, rows of fixed wooden letters interspersed with fixed, woodcut images were the first templates for printing books on a press in Europe.) When type and image forms harmonize, the page begins to appeal to sight and touch as well as intellect. In February of 2009 I had the privilege of adapting an 18th century woodcut for the wedding invitation of Anna Olswanger and Sholom Sylvestri (image). Currently I am adding lettering around the image.
