a 5x7" linocut block, carved into Carolina wrens and dogwoods.

I miss these buggers nesting in literally anything. You left your boots outside for 24 hours? two nests. Newspaper mailbox? nest.

A brief reflection on gratitude and the civility of proper correspondence.

I have been printing personal cards upon a vintage letterpress -- cotton stock, measured typography, a proper impression in ink. There remains something quietly dignified about paper, weight, and form.

I printed this as part of a print exchange/portfolio to benefit @everytown after the Parkland shooting in 2018. Lead type & 3-color reduction linocut print.

I'm on team WE ARE GOING TO WIN, but it's going to be hard and dark. Do not be silent.

This month we're exploring the Dolphin & Anchor image adopted by Aldus Manutius for the Aldine Press during the Italian Renaissance. Part one of six.

In the center, a classical white column topped with a cartoon-style bust of a man in a red beret, surrounded by a green laurel wreath. The background is solid light blue.Vintage woodcut of an anchor entwined by a coiling serpent/snake, with lettering "DVS" beside the shank. Classic symbolic black-line illustration on white.Color photograph of an ancient Roman-style floor mosaic embedded in a stone pathway outdoors. The central design shows a large red anchor with a circular ring at the top, forming a cross-like shape. A grayish-blue serpent or snake coils sinuously around the vertical shank of the anchor from near the top down to the base, with its body curving in an S-shape. The anchor's arms at the bottom are reddish-brown, flaring outward. The mosaic is bordered by a dark gray frame on a light beige/pebble tesserae background. Surrounding the mosaic are dry grass, weeds, and rough stone/pathway edges under sunlight.
