Commission

It's been a crazy couple of weeks, but that's got its good aspects. I completed a commission today and it's ready to be sent. Here are some cleaning prints to help sort the plate out for storage once the job's done, or for when they get mired in paint:



I like sending these along as wrapping paper. I like superficially mimicking ukiyo-e, for one, and also the idea of sending customers a part of the process beyond the end result.

The order was for twenty cards, so they were printed as a special numbered edition (I didn't have twenty Wyverns to begin with, so – slam). If you'd like to place your own request you can specify all kinds of things (color, yes envelopes, no envelopes, plate; we can even carve new plates), just so you know.

Stamps

I've been working on imprint stamps lately. I made one for myself to use on my work. In fact, I think everyone should, so I've been soliciting them. No... wait... wrong word... I'm looking for the opposite of solicit. ... Doesn't matter. I made up a word this morning (the honorific suffix schli), I'm not about to push my luck and go for two.

Index Press

hard at work, minor changes here and there

I'm much better at cutting drafts for prints than I ever was at doing the same for papers in college (although I suppose you don't cut papers)

if you order anything from me it'll have that on it somewhere

Cards Cards Cards (Cards); First Run

I've been a little behind in getting these to market – still am, in fact – but they're here to see. Contact me by clicking on the flying alien with the laser gun if you'd like to order some! Be sure to indicate quantity, address, and method of payment; and to direct any questions you may have regarding shipping or other considerations.

Availability: 7/8
Some have the dark half on top, while on others it is inverted (as above)

Availability: 6/9
One is in yellow ochre (as seen below), while the rest transition to red rather abruptly

Availability: 8/15
Ten are as pictured, while five are bordered

Availability: 17/24
A good first run; all in yellow ochre

Remember – no two are identical! (just close). All will be stamped with the Swimmy the Dish chop, and serialized.

Cards for You!

I've spent long hours poring over this indecipherable bestiary manuscript, and now I'm cutting the pages out and folding them in half to sell to you, if you're so inclined. What better way to celebrate antiquarian reliquary?

So if you've ever wanted to send a hydra to your favorite boss as a thank you, or squeeze your one true love with the affection of the kraken, get in touch! Cards are five dollars apiece, but less if you get more. Hand-pressed on hand-brushed card stock – it's pretty quality.

I'm working on select prints and colors to start, but if you have requests send me an email.

Now when I look at my workspace it's blurry.
