Goodies at Young Blood Gallery

Just wanted to let you know that I know have some goodies at Young Blood Gallery in Atlanta at its new happening location (636 North Highland Ave). If you haven't checked it out their expanded space is awesome! Here are some samples of the items in stock now:

Popcorn Prints

Here are some finished Popcorn prints. I tried several different backgrounds -- a yellow version, green version, and a blue version with a blue to green background fade. I prefer the yellow for its brightness, but I do like the blue fade too. These will be in my Etsy shop soon.

Popcorn Test Print

I've been working on a larger print now that I have some time to get back to carving. This is a 12"x18" block that I just finished. I don't know if she remembers, but when Shona sent me some prints a while back she used a popcorn box as some extra packing material. I liked it so much I saved it and this is what came out of the inspiration!

I am planning on making it a two color print, and having a solid background color behind this, although if that doesn't look good I'll probably end up carving another block to fill in some combination of the stripes or letters. I just tested it out with some old black water based ink I had lying around. I am thinking yelow and blue and yellow and red for color combinations -- I hope to do a couple different variations.

Just a word of warning if you want to change your Flickr identity -- it's pretty difficult! Once you pick a url you cannot create a new one and shift the existing pictures over. I decided to bite the bullet and manually move my pictures over to my new account, because I'm a glutton for punishment. I left a few pictures up under my old papastudios account that I want to remain linked to existing groups, but otherwise everything else has been moved to my new pspress account at

Sorry to report that I don't really have anything new up there, but I hope to start working on some new prints soon, now that I have some more free time coming up in July.
