Blog On The Move

I have completed my blog name change, so if you are reading this you have successfully navigated over to my new PS Press blog, formerly known as Papa Studios Fine Prints!

This new URL is http://psletterpress.blogspot.com. Please update your links accordingly!

Name Change!

After some consideration I've decided to change my press name from Papa Studios Fine Prints (which is way too long) to PS Press. This avoids confusion with the other Papa Studios business lines and allows me to have a much shorter and easier to remember name! I have some new banners for the site, and will be switching over the blog URL to reflect the name change in the near future. I'll also be moving my Etsy shop from http://papastudios.etsy.com to http://pspress.etsy.com gradually as things move out of the shop.

Indie Craft Experience Lucky #7 Atlanta Craft Show

Here are some pictures of the Indie Craft Experience Lucky #7 show held this past weekend in Atlanta. The weather was brutally hot and I'm sure kept some people away but it was a good experience for my first outdoor show!

Surprisingly again my block print notebooks were hot sellers at the show, which is in contrast to Etsy where I sell more prints and cards. Go figure...

Also, on an "it's a small world" note, my booth neighbor Breanna (I didn't get a website she may have) was the same as at the ICE Holiday Show. And as I found out between last year's show and this one she is a friend of Shona at LALA dex press. It is amazing that they put us together both times, not to mention that we know someone in common. Anyway, it was great to have her next door with her wonderful fiber work!

Looking forward to the ICE Holiday show with some cooler temperatures...

New Big Rig Print

What with working on a more complicated two color print and being away for a while I have not had much printmaking work to post. Here is the latest, an autobiographical two color print. I tried to challenge myself with the design on this one and I like the direction it went in. I am really satisfied with how the semi truck came out, and I learned a lot by trying to move away from printing in more simple blocks of color. Here are a few pictures of the fresh prints:









You can find this print and see my other work on Saturday at the Indie Craft Exprience Lucky #7 in Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park. This should be a fun event!
