“Exploring The Marvels of the Temescal Neighborhood”
Issue 1, Logos & Icons with Tour Guide Brian Brooks [zine], 24 pages, fully illustrated, black and white.
This issue began as a Pandemic Lockdown challenge to recreate every business logo in my neighborhood’s business district (along Telegraph Avenue, between 40th to 52nd Streets) in Oakland, California.
Black ink on white paper, folded & stapled by hand. Date stamped inside with the printing edition. Paper cover. Size: 5 1/2″ Width, 8 1/2″ Height.
$10 ($1 Shipping & Handling) Pay Pal & Venmo
This is the first in what might be a series of zines capturing my different non-plein air painting projects. I documented much of the major construction changes to the neighborhood over the past several years. During the Covid Pandemic I began mapping and surveying different areas.
I have also created an Instagram account titled @temescalnow dedicated to this and related neighborhood projects.
