MATE.
Adopting a dog, or any animal for that matter, can truly impact your life. My life, possibly more so than others. Three years ago, Sheila turned me into a vegetarian and 3 weeks ago the new pup, Mate, opened a new chapter in my relationship. A month ago a friend [...]
TRACY.
This was the quickest I was able to produce a design to press piece and love it during the entirety of the process. I did the design on Wednesday, ordered negatives on Thursday and made the plates as well as printed 4 runs on Friday. My graduation gift to the [...]
SMUSH.
I’ve heard scary stories in the letterpress studio about people smushing their fingers in the press. I never understood how until today while finishing up my old roommate’s wedding invites. After printing 400 invites, 100 ceremony/RSVP postcards, I was a little tired to do 400 envelopes. I wanted them done [...]
IF. IF. IF.
I was born and raised in good ol’ Utah. I’ve been here for 23 years with the exception of a couple study abroads and sweet vacations to far away places. One Utah gene I did not catch was the desire to place a bright and shiny rock on my left [...]
AMORE.
(Photos above courtesy of Lauren Brady, host of Amore Lounge) I celebrated Valentine’s Day yesterday with an awesome breakfast at Ruth’s diner, snowshoeing up Big Cottonwood Canyon, the most amazing onion rings I’ve ever had at Red Rock, a massage, dinner at The Copper Onion and attending the most well-thought [...]
BLIND.
Remember when I said I got inspired from my Impressive Kiss print to print completely blind? Well, here it is in all it’s glory. Once again it’s a play on printing. Can you guess what I titled it? 17 3/4″ x 12. Printed on Bleached Lettra, wet pack.
PARENTS.
Exactly 33 years ago, my parents married. They were 21 years old and in love. How did they meet? I’m glad you asked. The Vietnam War was getting bad and my Uncle, a white guy in the army who married my mom’s oldest sister, moved the family from everything they [...]
FATE.
Exactly one year ago I walked into PetSmart, contemplating on getting a cat because I knew they were easy to take care of. My roommate Di had an adorable kitten and she was all for getting another cat in the household. As Di is holding a cat, I slip over [...]
CAMPGROUND.
Last Saturday my half sister Crystal married her boyfriend of 2 years. They had their wedding at Perception Park, a campground up towards Monte Cristo. They asked me to take photos for them and this one is my favorite: I don’t really know Dustin all too well, and to be [...]
LOVE.
I guess it’s true what they say, when you’re in love you just know it. I didn’t expect it to hit me this hard though. I mean, it’s all I can think about. And it couldn’t come at a better timing. I just graduated from Utah State University with a [...]
