About my design

by Ian Leino   
Rework of an earlier design of mine that I thought would be perfect for the "3 Words" competition. Based on a snippet of overheard conversation.

Rendered by hand with scratchboard (see here for the full process blog ) and printed using metallic silver ink on a black shirt.

Thanks to everyone who offered up help and suggestions as I was working on this!
