This weekend i'll hopefully be well enough to go to shelly's and start printing some of my land bird series. when she told me that she got the plates in i got soooo giddy because this is my first full blown letterpress experience. i've touched upon it before playing with her wood type but now i get to go from original design to actual print and i'm syked!
I'm thinking that the little guys on the bottom may be a gocco print, what do you think?
So cool, congrats, get well and have fun!!!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, these bird prints you keep drawing up are so fresh and light and gorgeous! A really unique balance of the modern look and the revived nature/crafty movement. love them.

ReplyDeleteamazing- and i love the colors you're using too! How'd it go today with printing!?
ReplyDeleteSo exiciting! And the illustrations are just gorgeous. Esp love the coral/nude color scheme...
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful! I love their poses. Why would you print the bottom as a gocco instead of letterpress? I really like their detail. Have fun! *a
