‘I was working on maintaining the quality of Bernhard’s handdone type while taking a new and different approach to it’<\/em><\/p>\n

Student Lesley Gaesser’s large scale final project from my experimental type course at The Art Institute of California Sacramento.<\/p>\n

Lesley did an 11 week study on the work of designer Lucian Bernhard<\/a> (1883-1972) – which culminated in a final linocut-inspired project. <\/p>\n

Bernard’s Antiqua type was traced onto Speedball carving blocks, cut by hand, inked and printed on large sheets of watercolor paper.<\/p>\n

My next experimental course begins April 8.<\/p>\n
