OK Hello everyone! Sorry it took me so long to fill you in with Dafi’s visit and Wayzgoose. The end of the semester is here and I am trying to wrap up all my final projects.
First, Dafi’s workshop. It was wonderful to work with someone who has a design background and not print background. It definitely gave me a different perspective to printing which will hopefully enhance my work. I am officially able to operate the laser cutter which is super exciting. I want to go laser cut crazy! Check out some of the pics from the workshop.
Second, Wayzgooseeee! This was a wonderful getaway from the city. Two Rivers, Wisconsin is a wonderful and welcoming town to all of us. With lots of wood type and letterpress lovers! Hamilton Museum It was a weekend full of printing, calligraphy demos, letter design, and panel talks. Check out these pics as well. If you ever have a chance to go to Hamilton you must go to the ice cream shop where the first ice cream sundae was created! There are wonderful antique shops in the next town as well!!
