I have a lot of friends who are talented. Very talented. I know that I am biased, but I really do know some amazingly creative individuals. After all, that is the legacy a good art college leaves you with. Some are well established designers, and some are just starting out. But if you are interested …
Mono-printing magic
A quick post. Â I just wanted to share this with you. Mono-printing is ridiculously fun. If you haven’t tried it, get yourself to an art store and buy yourself a sheet of vinyl, a carving tool, some ink and a roller….OR….carve a potato and get printing. Today I made this print: …and these bookmarks for …
