No. 3

This is a handmade zine produced and published in 2021 by Push Pull Press (oh wait that's me)

It's a collection of works from creative folks from all over, and as the name implies an ode to graphite based mark making. I didn't have a theme or set many limitations on contributors, it simply had to be graphite based and my plan was to keep them all to scale as originally drawn. From there folks were invited to submit drawings, sketches, doodles, rants, poems, grocery lists etc. People then mailed originals or sent scans and from there I took over. Managing the entire project from top to bottom, concept to completion.

You can read more about the project in the ABOUT section here, and much of the process and shenanigans is documented on my Instagram account linked at bottom of the page.
