Experimental Line Work

This image is from a series of posters completed in 2009 for the Psycle Analysis Cd release party. The posters were created in homage to Ichiban, who is a musician, poet, emcee, karate master, and all together amazing guy. I am posting this because I have been working on experimental line work with different mediums, many of which I feel are completely unorthodox in regards to creating representational artwork, even if culturally influenced as we see above.
These posters were created with a marker known as a POP marker, with a two inch chisel tip.
The mark making is done deliberately and with as much indicated in each line as possible. The point being to think minimal, but translate optimal information.
More on this technique and the posters in later posts.
