Firing up the press for a miniature Edward Gorey book for Aredian Press. I cut windows to put greater pressure (and thus more ink coverage) on the images so that the text won’t get over inked. Looking forward to seeing this die cut and bound! #artistbook #aredianpress #letterpress #edwardgorey #miniature #miniaturebook #mohawksuperfine
Nothing like some custom cut handmade marbled paper to set off some stationery. This one is fresh off the press for @pressedufour #letterpress #marbledpaper #handmadepaper #stationery #monogram
We did so many print projects in 2018 we forgot to share most of them - I’ll start catching up on photographing them with this Level 11 card designed by @louviere.and.vanessa / black ink on kraft cover stock. #letterpress #kraft #businesscard
I have a few leather bound journals left after the markets. Three of the larger size in blue suede with handmade Khadi paper inside with a beautiful natural deckle edge running across the top of each page. The smaller ones have several endpaper options with English Somerset paper inside! Both papers are very thick and great for painting/illustration/vigorous writing. $35/$25 stop by the studio or message me and I’ll ship one to you. #handbound #smallfirespress
We out here till it rains! @artsmarketneworleans with the @baskervillestudio @typothetae crew. Come say hello before the deluge.
We’re at our first market of the season at @neworleans.airlift Music Box Village until 5! Come say hello and play some instruments.
Happy Halloween!! 🍬👻🍭💀🎃

Happy .918 everyone. I think my favorite point in printing is the moment the baselines are flush on either side of the page. Printers/graphic designers do you have a moment of supreme satisfaction? #letterpress #918 #typehigh #bookdesign #poetry #chapbook #baseline
