October 3rd, 2009winter project
October 2nd, 2009I have found a reason to look forward to the winter: I will be spending a good portion of those gray winter weekends holed up in John Casey’s stamp shop, pulling letterpress prints! He has had an old Pearl in the back of said shop for a while and has just got a machine that makes plates, so we’re going to gather the supplies and missing parts, transplant the press to the front window of his shop, and start cranking! I’ve got quite a few designs stewing in my sketchbooks, many of which involve two colors. This simple design will be for test runs, so It will only be one color.
This one and the many to follow will be available on etsy and at Casey’s Rubber Stamps in the East Village. I am pretty darn excited- so much so that I have became entirely enchanted with the idea of my career revolving around letterpress prints instead of mass market illustration of any sort.
