Pencil Factory Newsprint Project

The Pencil Factory, for those not familiar, is a building in Greenpoint, Brooklyn in which some serious talent practices their craft. As much as DUMBO is the "digital hub" of Brooklyn, I think Greenpoint must be the illustration hub. Jennifer Daniel and Josh Cochran (two current residents and mega-talents) have organized a fun project for current pencil factory residents and friends / alumni called "15 Uses for Newsprint". This printed promo features full page work by Sam Weber, Jillian Tamaki, Josh Cochran, Christopher Silas Neal, Lief Parsons, Kim Bost, Jennifer Daniel, Gilbert Ford, Grady McFerrin, Ted McGrath, Alex Eben Meyer, Rachel Salomon, Joel Speasmaker, and yours truly. They are to be sent out to some lucky art directors, but are also for sale to the general public for the teensy cost of $10.
