Sublimation Plaque


These inspirational quotes are designed for a technique called "sublimation", where the image is printed on special paper with special ink, and heat pressed at 400 degrees onto specially treated metal. The ink sublimates from a solid to a gas and permeates the metal plate. The finished plate is affixed to a wooden plaque board.

Here is the finished product.

Conference posters

 

These are color and grayscale versions of a promotional poster for an event hosted by a non-profit. Since InDesign does not have fonts for Hindi or Cyrillic, I used Illustrator to create the typography for the former, and Photoshop to import the latter.

Crystal Engraving


One of many laser engraved awards using the Epilogue 5000 laser printer. This award is crystal on a granite base. Shown with the paper proof behind the crystal for illustration purposes.
