Design and Technique
For Ex-libris (Bookplate).
The Little Red Crush Cap (L.R.C.C.) is the code name of the main character who teams up with a Suzuki TV250 Wolf model motorcycle in this story inspired by "Little Red Riding Hood". The concept involves scribbling on old pictures cut from scenes of the character's life; action adventure story to play exciting life with soul mates.
The design matches the wrinkly wax paper with representations of hand printed lithograph producing an antique look, while the scribbling are created with enamel colors drawn by hand. The opus number printed with stencil creates the brutal aggressive atmosphere. The view of the world the characters live in comes to life through them. The words by graffiti style in the speech balloons are the respective titles of the works. Rivets are attached for decoration on the works and eyelets can be used to pin up walls. However, the merchandise is very delicate. Scrupulous care should be taken in handling.
