It’s election season in Arizona, and the politic

It’s election season in Arizona, and the political advertising is impossible to escape. Every street corner throughout Phoenix is littered with campaign signs. However, we do have one candidate who can deeply, effectively, deliciously penetrate the electoral landscape. Thank you @dixonbutts_official for your service 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I’m home 😪 for the first time since 2019. It’s been good to catch up with my family.
I forget about how high-contrast this place is.

Tfw you travel through Palm Springs two weeks before @modernism_week 🥲

It’s market day! They turned on the nice weather for us, too 😎 I’ll be at @re_lovedmarket in Hobart til 2pm, with the tactile works I’ve designed and made x Steph

Letterpress was my gateway into design. In the final year of my fine arts degree, I took a letterpress course that was also a deep dive into graphics, posters, print history, and typography. I was captivated.
.
Like the other projects I share here – textiles, home, garden – letterpress printing is a tactile process. For me, those physical projects are how I mitigate the ‘brain in a jar’ feeling I get from working on a screen all day. It’s a lot like baking, really. Follow steps, enjoy delicious results.
.
I’ll be at @re_lovedmarket this Saturday in Hobart with a few greeting cards, BUT I’m also pleased to say that if you sign up with @novelteabookclub for their December parcel, you might also see some letterpress goodies from me 😉 Literate tea lovers, this one is for you!

The @re_lovedmarket in Hobart has an interesting vibe. It’s a flea market, but artsy and fashion-oriented. It’s curated, but unpretentious, because putting tickets on yourself is just not the done thing here in Australia’s littlest state. I printed these letterpress postcards to celebrate just how Perfectly Okay this place is and that there’s nothing wrong with that. See you on Saturday!

Tassie native floral love 🤍 The red pepperberry

Tassie native floral love 🤍 The red pepperberry branches + the white lomatia blooms are looking fab in my city garden, if you ask me (while Mishka is just pleased to have one of her humans nearby). Fingers crossed for another gorgeous spring day at @re_lovedmarket this weekend 🤞🍃
