Animal Alphabet

Felix Sockwell · 2004 · Letterpress / Screenprint

A whimsical alphabet print pairing Felix Sockwell's continuous single-line animal illustrations with bold block letterforms. Each letter is rendered in a soft blue-gray block, overlaid with a red continuous-line drawing of an animal whose name begins with that letter, from alligator to zebra. The interplay between the heavy, geometric typography and the fluid, gestural line work is both playful and sophisticated, distilling complex animal forms into elegant, unbroken contours while keeping a sense of humor and accessibility.

Every animal is just one line waiting to be drawn.Felix Sockwell
