GWAR at The Regency, November 21, 2010

Part flesh-eating zombie / part Glenn Beck portrait, my poster for Gwar at The Regency Ballroom is printed on Abrasive 150 Grit Sandpaper in an edition of 125. Perfect for rounding wood corners and for fixing uneven table legs.

I made two variants:

There is an edition of 12 on Very Fine 220 Grit Sandpaper – The best choice for sanding after priming, staining and sealing.

There is also an edition of 12 on Extra Fine 320 Grit Sandpaper – Ideal for sanding between coats of finish.

It seemed appropriate to make a poster for Gwar that would destroy all other posters. And given the abrasive personality of Glenn Beck only harsh sandpaper paper would do. I printed this by hand at Hangar 18, with extra care, applying four coats of ink on the bottom layer, three coats of ink on the second color, and two coats of ink on the last (sanding lightly between each layer – just kidding). One unintentional coolness that happened while printing this is that the clear blue final color picked up texture and luminosity from the emory and sand – and shines like a metallic ink. Even when I try to use regular colors they go metallic on me!
