Logo design for Seventh Rule. The idea came from a package I got from a friend that had copied files from the FBI. So here is the start.

Aluminum plate etching.
White ink on black Stonehenge paper.
This is a proof. Need to make some adjustments to the ink. Change the paper as well.

Books and Books and Books.
First is Edward R. Tufte's Visual Explanations: Images and Quantities, Evidence and Narrative (1997)
This is a book about information design. He seems to have a hard time getting some points across.


Next book.
Robert Adam and Carol Robertson's
Intaglio: The Complete Safety-First System For Creative Printmaking
This book gives a very detailed information on printing in a safe environment. The book gives good step by step for etching and great planning details for a print shop.




I have three other books to put up as well. Perhaps tomorrow.

Creating a 2-D with a 3-D Graphic Space.
This was able to come to fruition with the help of J. W. Lawson ( check his site here and his blog here). He was willing to sit down and explain the photo process with me. I like the way it came out. In my crit, people wanted to see it more as an installation piece rather than in a 2-D format. I say no thanks, I like the flatness of the image.
