gilbert paper (with thirst) posted 23 June 2006
I worked with Gina Vieceli to make this little piece that I call “Security Devils” for Thirst’s client, Gilbert Paper.
A single page in the Gilbert Cotton swatchbook, the story of this is somewhat amusing (to me). Gina told me that they wanted to engrave a security border, to allude to the paper’s use on certificates etc. My first sketch turned out looking oddly like a pair of devils, so I thought, “Why not? Devils need security too.”
And so the Security Devils were born; snuggled up and clinging to each other in deep companionship, as devils are wont to do.
They can be found after the “Performance” tab, on the “Offset Lithography / Engraving” page in the new (as of this date) swatchbook. Be sure to touch them—devils need that, too.
