(2) PS Words with double ls tell the story of the siblings from Look now at a seaside amusement park. Hand-crafted lettering incorporates many of the ls into the pictures themselves: the ls in spill are straws tumbling from an overturned cup; those in marshmallow are toasting sticks over a campfire. Bright, ebullient images feature open composition with lots of movement, and heavy buff paper stock enhances their tactile, textured richness.
