Maxim Magazine
Chandra Illick
Former Buffy the Vampire Slayer crony Michelle Trachtenberg was featured on the March 2011 cover of Maxim magazine and to introduce the story, the art directors of Maxim were looking for an autograph lettering style. I wanted the lettering to feel as seductive as the cover image, so used lipstick as a medium to create the letter forms for the cover and inside spread.
Erik is currently accepting freelance lettering and design work and is available for conference and university speaking engagements. This website was lovingly designed and developed by Jessica Hische in Wordpress from Elliot Jay Stocks’s Starkers Theme. The logotype is custom lettering by Erik. The typefaces used are Chaparral Pro by Carol Twombly, Herb by Just Another Type Foundry, and Learning Curve by BV Fonts. Typefaces hosted by Typekit.
