➕➕➕ new work ➕➕➕
.
for the past few years, i have been studying tribal and primitive motifs, patterns, and symbols.
.
this has led me to developing my own series/language of symbolic sigils and motifs.
.
these pieces can be done as is, expanded upon, or repeated to cover greater areas. they can also be done at different sizes/line weights. machined or handpoked.
.
much more to come, as i am looking to direct a lot of my focus into this type of work. but illustrative pieces will always be welcome.
.
if you are interested in developing a meaningful piece, schedule a consultation with me and i can share more concerning the sources of these patterns and how we can construct a piece with specific meaning.
