Lead Image

For these letterpress prints designer John Choura Jr. rendered sassy sayings typographically to create entertaining wall pieces for home or studio. The exercise allowed John to play with typographic trickery and learn about the liberating feeling of taking an idea from concept to pixels to plates to paper.

Project Description

I wanted to produce letterpress prints that would be cheeky, and look good on one's wall; something that could be a conversation starter.

Production Lesson(s)

Learning the constraints of printing is liberating. It might sound counter intuitive, but boiling work down to it's bare minimum and translating it to new mediums (ie. from pixels to plates to paper), is powerful.”
