SOL is finally online

Friday, March 26th, 2010

We have a small product line, New styles will be coming later this spring along with a variety of other products. Women’s sizes will also be available shortly. Fighting Eagle shirts were just printed and they look great.

we used a method called ‘discharge’ printing mixed with water based inks, so the printing is soft to the touch and will wear for the long haul. We also use American Apparel products for our shirts because i’ve found they are consistently the best quality/comfort fit around. CHEERS!

Letterpress Project CALL TO ACTION

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Hello Friends. I NEED YOU!
okay, my press is in desperate need of new rollers and trucks. cost = $400. To reach my goal i am going to propose a collaboration with other designers/artists in need of some biz cards or the like. here are the rules and the cost.

1. I have 10 spots open. They will fill up fast.
2. Cost is $40 per spot, plus your plates and paper cost (for business card it’s approx. $25 for plates and $30 for paper)
3. 1-2 colors/ 1-sided. (if you want to go 2-sided it’s a pain, but contact me and i’ll talk to you about additional specs and pricing mr. fancy pants). * i have most colors, i can’t match pantone, but i’ll mix up something close. i also have silver & gold.
4. Quantity is up to 250 (you think you want more, but you don’t, trust me). if you truly need more we can discuss.
5. You have to be here to help run your job once i get it set up. (this is the collaboration part, hence the low cost, and so you can see how much work goes into this style of printmaking.)

This is a screamin deal on a handmade product AND you get a free lesson, but i love collaboration and i needs my new rollers.
thats about it. attached are some images of my sad doctored trucks and my old rollers. contact me here or via facebook and we’ll start filling spots.

Just finished illustrating this home cutaway for APS. The illustration was dropped into a brochure pointing out 10-12 areas that can help reduce energy consumption and save money. All good things!
