A lo-fi, DIY concert flier printed on green paper with a distressed, splattered aesthetic. Black ink splatters and smudges cover the page, including a prominent set of fingerprints near the bottom center.

The text is arranged as follows:

    Top left: The band names EDSEL, MO PAGANS, and SHUDDER TO THINK are printed in a classic serif font.

    Center: The words "aRT wOrk" are stamped in a blocky, typewriter-style font amidst the splatters.

    Bottom right (handwritten): A small handwritten note reads "1413 P St."

    Bottom edge: Event details are printed in a large serif font: "$5, 8pm ; 3.12 at BBQ IG."
