Silverback wins at PunchCutters Exhibition

A little late…My (still incomplete) sans serif face Silverback won first place at the Punchcutters Exhibition held in late November. Co-sponsored by the Society of Typographic Arts and the Illinois Institute of Art – Chicago, the exhibition pulled in around a dozen submissions. Rick Valicenti and Linda Blackwell judged.

Needless to say I am quite pleased. Who doesn’t love external validation.
