Interleaf Designed for Oranbeg Press

Always been a big fan of John O’toole’s “Oranbeg Press” endeavors and publications. Was happy being invited to design an interleaf for his extensive Interleaves project, and be among the mix of so many photographers I admire. The project is soon to wrap up, having featured 150 artists.

Interleaves can be found / purchased here at Oranbeg
