The Los Angeles-based creative duo walks us through the process of creating a screen printed poster.
DKNG is Dan Kuhlken and Nathan Goldman, a pair of creative dudes whose projects range from screen printed posters to web design to giant wooden installations. We met them at the Renegade Craft Fair in San Francisco and were immediately drawn to their bright, bold work. As part of their diverse and expansive portfolio of client work, Dan and Nathan have been resident poster artists at Hollywood’s famous Troubadour since 2007.
Dan was kind enough to share the duo’s process of a poster they recently completed for the band Phish. Read on for a step-by-step walk through what it takes to create a fabulous screen printed poster.

Much more than a simple dispensary of books, Reading Frenzy is a call to action. This modestly-sized storefront simultaneously functions as an art gallery, event space, literary watering hole, zine distribution point, indie publisher, friend to free speech, and an inspiration to many.
