Ninth Letter

Editorial, Print, Illustration, Lettering

The Ninth Letter is a quarterly arts and literary journal published by the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. The scope of this project was to both write and design a 16 page spread investigating the art-toy phenomenon often referred to as “Urban Vinyl.” Created by using a combination of spray paint, stencils, and hand-drawn elements, the visual result is meant to evoke a kind of fun, yet gritty, urban texture.
