Join us on Saturday, October 21 for the second of two virtual lectures with design binder Brenda Gallagher.
“As a graphic designer, I enjoy making designs for books using letterforms in my designs. I’ll show you several ways to use letters as objects of design and discuss several ways of getting letter designs onto a leather binding including; tooling, painted incisions, debossing with cut shapes and polymer plates.”
