This is Brad's "Proof" which he sent to the Ryman for approval. Instead of printing a proof on the press, they brayer the type with ink and print it on tracing paper (by rubbing the back of the paper with their hands), so they can photocopy it at kinko's and shrink it down to 8.5x11 to fax to the client. To keep the ink dry, they cover it with cornstarch after printing it.

Process: Imogen Heap
This week, Brad has been working on printing a poster for Imogen Heap, a musician who will be performing at the Ryman in June. It was nice to see how he designs and prints a poster from beginning to end, something we will all be doing shortly!
