I am all for the quirky promo that not only shows us the unique talents of the person behind them, but also their personality. Such is the case of this short run promotional poster series by Derek Gabryszak and Claire Louise Priestley.
On a sunny spring day in New York, my friend Claire and I sat down in Tompkins Sq. Park to do some drawings that would hopefully result in a silly little art print. We watched as kids played and people passed, taking in all of it.
Mr. & Mrs. Skirtburger are the result of that. We decided to print in two colors, pink (Mrs) and blue (Mr).
If you recall, my first print was produced in my kitchen, on a “press” made with parts from hardware and art stores. I have (slightly) worked my way up to printing in a proper studio now. And this print is a fun representation as that.
Catch my attention you did, and I am happy to hear a better printing set up is now at your disposal.
