Artwork description:

Based on the quote by Beatrice Warde who likened "fine typography to a crystal wine goblet bubble thin which in its transparency focused the connoisseurs attentions on the essence of its contents beautiful typography was imagined as an invisible conveyance the back page colophon cryptic notes on the fonts and the paper was the only place the invisible typographer dared show his face."

This typographic design totally undermines/destroys the statement...

Edition of only 10 exclusive signed prints

Style: Typography. Graphic. Minimalist. Line. Flat colour.

All my artwork is drawn directly into the computer (no scans or photographs) using vector curves. The finished artwork is printed out as a high quality limited edition Giclée print.

This is an original digital artwork. The above image is taken directly from the image file, rather than being photographed or reproduction of the final print.

Printed colours can vary slightly from those produced by a computer screen.

Your print will wrapped in layers of acid free tissue then rolled into a strong cardboard tube for posting along with a letter from the artist.

By default the print is cut with a 1.5 cm white border. If you wish your print to be cut to the edge of the image let me know.

Materials used:

vector software on a laptop, output on high quality 250gsm smooth matt paper
