Second attempt went better. This time we burned the plate from some leftover linoleum floor tile. It held up nicely, capturing the small type detail and giving an impression.

floor tile for the win!

We had a blast hosting two different Girl Scout troops for a print making and book binding workshop yesterday! We’re loving the way these young ladies explored our type collection!

Some quick jams over the last couple of weeks when we’ve had the time to work on our own things. We’re continuing our quote project from the start of the new year with the time print (1 more color to go) and I also needed a thank you card for some folks at work, and don’t worry, the gift cards did not say Happy Birthday, this was just a mock up …why buy what you can make?

A successful failure here. I thought I would be able to laser engrave linoleum for small detailed prints and as it turns out, it’s way too soft. The small letters broke within a matter and if a couple prints. I think my linoleum was also not very flat because I had all kinds of problems getting it to ink evenly. Oh well 🤷.

Cool job for off the C&P last week! All photopolymer. Always good to roll the sleeves up and make a clean tight print with a good deep impression.

This was a super fun project to work through and I love getting to see the final results. We collaborated with to provide type, image,
and printing support for his cover art for #13 Farm Fights.

Jim is a pleasure to work with and I couldn’t be happier seeing our work hit the cover of his comic and in true style, representing the classic look of many letterpress printed fight night posters!

Messing around with some sketchbooks today, trying to improve my technique and explore some concepts. Digital prints, not letterpress.

As the new year begins, we’re focusing on setting meaningful intentions—striving to make a positive impact and make our everyday better. This print series marks the beginning of our journey toward those goals, aiming to inspire us all to reach toward our best selves. Keep an eye out for more— our goal is to release a new piece each month of the year. 🤞

We hope these aspirations for mindfulness, balance, kindness, and happiness resonate. 🌈❤️

A poster for our gym’s annual fight nigh benefit with a combo of wood type, metal rule and lasered images.

Went from digital to analog and a little in between. Pretty happy with the small halftone images and the overall look!
