Paint!

Ta Da! It actually turned out much more yellow than I thought it was going to. But it's beautiful! Second coat will probably go up later this week.
Haven't been printing, but have been designing like crazy. Lots of stuff to do!

Ghostly, III


I like this photo, not because it's an amazing photo, but because it shows how much of a difference filling in all of the holes makes.

Ghostly, II


The work so far; the seams all have their first layer.

Ghostly


The press is all wrapped up, because over the next few weeks, the walls will be gooped,* sanded, gooped again, and then painted! This does mean that printing is on temporary break, but after this, it will be so nice in the print studio!


*(I'm told the real word is "mudding," but "goop" is so appropriate.)

Playing with Vandercooks


So over the past weekend, I went to visit Singletree Press, and the book arts center in Rochester.
We had fun using lots of different cuts to make cards!

(.918, for you non-type-geek sorts, is type high--the height your type must be to print from it.)

Map-Fold Wedding Invitations

107 map-folds, 250 pages, and 5 press runs later...

...they're done! The invitations have been delivered!
I'm really happy with how they turned out.
