Naked as a Gaybird
This poster was a blast to make. The playwright, Jay Byrd provided a beautiful portrait of himself drawn by his friend Heyd Fontenot. I channeled my childhood memories of 1970s YA fiction, disco, and movies that only played at the weird downtown theater that I wasn’t allowed near to create this composition. The title type treatment is a redrawing of 1970s staple ITC Bookman Swash in case you were keeping score at home.

Thr3e Zisters
