Eric Fuertes

The Death Metal Press

Picture
Created by the Devil reincarnated behold!  Kneel before the powers that is The Death Metal Press!  This press is more then just a brand.  It is a ink-less printing press that harnesses the power of fire and tormented souls to create images on a two dimensional picture substrate.  "Woodblocks" are transitioned from wood to metal and then printed upon the flesh of the meek so that they always remember that we once rocked this place!

Espiritu San Anto

Picture
Eric Fuertes and Dumbo Press take their skills and knowledge to the West Side of San Antonio which is locally known as San Anto. In one week and under the guidance of Eric Fuertes the youth of San Anto imagined and constructed an interactive sculptural printing press. The press was affectionately named "Espiritu de San Anto" and was debuted at their first annual Printmaking Pachanga. It was one amazing week for all involved. Big love to the other half of Dumbo Press Mr. John Medina! Without your vision and hustle none of this would have happened! Enjoy the video and to all in San Anto thank you for your time and love! We will see you soon and keep on keepin' on!

These two worlds collide into a cataclysmic eruption of creativity and ingenuity. With years of experience and risk taking expect to see more from this visionary, inventor and true patriot!
