This month, I wanted to redesign a card I had printed years ago with inspiration from my former roommate, Bear Hebert. The original design is card #XX but I wanted to update it with my doggo. Additionally I wanted to design a card I could print on my little Kelsey Tabletop.

After the polymer plates were made, two unexpected things happened. First, I got COVID for the first time and was in my apartment with my dog for a week. Second, and this one is sad, but my dog passed away. I can’t say it was restorative to print 200 images of the little goofball, but I did it. We keep going, right?

Two color letterpress, printed at my home studio.
