Two colours.
Sometimes three.
A poster begins with a story, ends in two passes through the press. The third colour is reserved, and earned.
Always letter-pressed in Porto
01
Listen
A long phone call. We talk about the bakery, the festival, the village before any drawing happens.
02
Sketch
Three rough plates in pencil & gouache. We choose one, then I tighten the line for the press.
03
Press
Two-pass letterpress in sun yellow & folk red. Each poster signed before leaving the studio.
