CHRIS BARTOS AND THE RACCOONS/BRAD BARR/EMMA BAXTER POSTER

CHRIS BARTOS POSTER
I thought this time around I'd try to do something a little different and play around with coloring techniques ( to make it look more like a screenprint). All my posters are digitally printed because it's tough to print the pencil gradient. It is possible to do but I feel like the pencil touch gets lost and that is what I enjoy about using pencil: capturing intensity and shadow and mood by how much pressure you put on the pencil. Its a little more physical, a little more intimate. I love the slight nuances and imperfection of pencil.
Love!C

I could see you enjoying Mister Retro Permanent Press filter. It does a nice job of making things look slightly misregistered, or chewed up a bit like silkscreen does.
