There’s about a billion things due and TO do in the coming week, but I squeezed in a little time to print just for fun– no planning allowed! But what should the next layer be?? 🤔

🤖⚡️VIRTUAL WORKSHOP ALERT

Monday, October 10 I will be teaming up with @southwestprintfiesta to teach about one of my favorite things: making posters! Link in bio to register/check out more of their extra-fun workshop offerings. Here’s a little more about what we’ll be covering in the virtual realm:

In this workshop we will demystify the poster-making process, from initial concept to the printed piece. Along the way, we'll cover things like client interaction, sketching/layout approach, proofing tactics, and efficient poster printing. Participants will have input on a poster we'll create over the course of the class, and will receive a printed poster, as well as some tips that should be useful in both a personal and professional practice.

Poster-in-process for @folkmoot , whose international festival is coming up this weekend! North Carolina friends, I’m envious if you’re in range of this event, where many countries and cultures will be represented through music and dance.

Type-in-action for @brighterlightbrigade ‘s new EP, out today! Proud of all the hard work this team has been putting in to get some great kids (and beyond!) songs into the world 🌈

To differentiate all 7(!) discs in the Ed & Ella H

To differentiate all 7(!) discs in the Ed & Ella Haley boxed set, special care was taken to make each one a bit unique. Each packet (based roughly on old fiddle string packaging) got its own custom illustrations to go along with the track listing, and a different color was hand mixed for each, matched to the candy-colored disc inside.

Happy to say that all design/print elements for @s

Happy to say that all design/print elements for @springfedrecords upcoming release, “Stole From the Throat of A Bird: The Complete Recordings of Ed & Ella Haley” have just been turned in for completion! Soon this boxed set of 7 discs and a 100+ page booklet will be available, after a lot of years and no small amount of work by one of my favorite labels.

Here’s a clip of the cover art being carved last year (the birds even sang for it.)
