I got the chance to do a huge woodblock print this spring! The block itself is about 2'x3' and was printed with a small steam roller on fabric I dyed with beets.
Made some stamps for my sibling as a gift!

"I Died Today: A Valentine's Day Greeting" by L.K. Blackham on INPRNT
Hey, guys! Valentine's Day looms over us like a giant pink balrog, and what better way to appease the beast than to give a quirky, cool card that I bet no one else has seen and/or gotten and will surely remember forever? That's right, I've got a sexy, sexy card in stock here that is currently ON SALE! It's drawn by me, for you, each line infused with love and morbid bewilderment, printed by the patron saints of quirky holiday cards over at INPRNT. It features a depiction of the beloved patron saint of affianced couples, beekeepers, happy marriages, love, the mentally ill, plague, and epilepsy! Yes, it's true, Saint Valentine does more than just help the lovey dovey couples out there - he also wants to make sure you're practicing good mental self care and taking your medications regularly. Your relationship to your partner is important, sure, but what about your relationship.... with *yourself*?
The Wikipedia article also says he's the patron saint "against fainting", so I guess just avoid doing that on his saint's day. Be chill.
Man, the more I learn about this man the more I think I love him. Celebrate Valentine's Day and help support a poor indie artist/grad student! (That's me. I'm the poor artist.)
Raised You From Perdition II
Linocut + chine colle, handprinted
I wanted to try out a new (for me) printing techniqe and here’s the result. Not perfect and a bit shabby, I guess it’s ok for a first time 😉
I used acrylic paint, blue and red crepe paper and glue spray on paper.
B/W linocut version of the print here.

On July 13, 1852, Henry Wells and William Fargo opened Wells, Fargo & Company banks in Sacramento and San Francisco. It was at 424 Montgomery Street, the company’s San Francisco location, that the company’s first bank transaction took place in California. The location of their Sacramento branch was at the corner of Second and J Streets in the B.F. Hastings building.
Because of the Gold Rush, it was not long before Wells Fargo offices opened in other towns throughout the gold region, such as Auburn and Columbia, where the company not only exchanged gold dust for bank notes, but they soon expanded with a delivery service transporting letters, packages, and gold on stagecoaches.
For today, Howard letterpress printed a large photo engraving depicting the historic Wells Fargo Assay office in Folsom, California. This photo engraving is based on an illustration made by Jane Wandmaker Whitnack in 1942. This was printed with black rubber base ink using our Washington hand press, which was made in 1852.

I found an amazing artist named John Fleissner, a teacher who makes art prints and murals relating to many social issues and I wanted to share the education related ones here. I highly encourage you to check out his website where you can see more of his works and read his mission statement.
