Comm Tech: Hand Job

I like the idea of making do with as little technology as possible. We're relying a lot on these amazing adobe suites. It would be interesting to take it back a step and look at the world before my generation, who learnt to use photo shop before learning to wipe themselves properly. Of course, there are plenty of artists and illustrators around now who are just using hands, as demonstrated in Michael Perry's book 'Hand Job';








Perry's really into that sort of thing, so brought out another book, Over & Over, this time about pattern, and it has a considerable amount of hand rendered pieces;





I found a publication while in Stockholm called Museum paper, and although its contents were very digital media based, the consistent layout of the book had a hand rendered style;




Another swedish book was this small book, a collaboration of 2 illustrators; Joakim Ojanen & Hanna Andersson, full of hand drawn illustrations;




Hand drawn typography can be found a lot in the media. Heres a selection from my type journal;
