This young designer
specializes in the old-school art of handlettering with a modern twist. His work is both beautiful and clever. We can’t
wait to see what he has in store for Arts on the Square.
Hi Ryan!
Tell us more about
yourself… what got you into the creative field?
I've always been very
into art and drawing. My parents have an entire box full of drawings from when
I was a kid. (mostly from the Lion King and Power Rangers) It just seemed
logical to try and do something creative as a living. I originally planned on
majoring in Advertising but wanted something more hands on and drifted towards
Graphic Design.
What do you love most
about hand-lettering and printmaking?
I love the look and feel that you get from making things by hand. It makes it special, and worth having. The fact that you can run your hands over the paper, wood, or whatever media you're printing on and actually feel the ink.....it's pretty awesome! I'm so inspired by early vintage typography and sign painters, and you really can't replicate that on the computer.

What has been your
favorite project to date?
My two favorite projects
to date are wedding related. I created a Save the Date and Wedding Invitation
for two of my best friends. They were letterpressed by Samantha Urbanick of
Hand Deliver Press and came out amazing.
The other project
involved creating custom beer labels for a home brew my friend and I made for
his wedding.
What kind of work will
you be featuring at AOTS?
Bottle openers, prints
(on paper and wood), 6-pack carriers. Everything I sell will have some hand
lettering incorporated.
What kinds of custom
work do you do and how should people contact you?
Custom hand lettering
and screen printing. I also do logo and web design.
