Peter Chen is creating one-off portraits of iconic baseball players from the 1970s and 80s in the style of now vintage jumbotron images. The print method is pretty interesting: a grid of circle dots is printed on black paper with a laser printer, creating a black-on-black effect, and then a manual gold foil treatment is applied for the portrait.
