Hey weirdos,

I made a new thing!

Use these dispensers for all your soap, lotion and hand sanitizer needs!

These dispensers are made with a high quality pump, heavy duty mason jar (with a non slip base), and a custom made water resistant #VinylSticker featuring an original design by @brianabernhard !

Please note, these dispensers are not mass produced, I make each one by hand and I only made a handful of these (so far), which will be available for sale in my @abrand4weirdos boutique inside @craftedportla only this weekend!

If you are unable to come into our boutique this weekend, please DM me, I can make you another one next week. I can also ship these if you want to preorder one.

I finally pulled a limited edition series of my spikey #Seahorse #linoleumblockprint with @speedball_art #SupergraphicBlack ink on @strathmoreart #bristolboard!

Once these suckers dry, I’ll sign and number each one, print up some fancy certificates of authenticity, and post them for sale on @abrand4weirdos !

The carving/cutting of my weird little @seahorse #linoleumblock is done, I think. lol. Now I’m off to eat lunch, then clean up my space and see about pulling a test print!

Stay tuned!

Carving is well underway for my latest #Seahorse #linocut! However, I finally got my first super high end #PfeilTools cutting tool! It’s like butter y’all! OMG this thing is amazing!

Started a new #linocut inspired by the magical #seahorse! The actual print will be in the reverse, this is just the original drawing on the lino.

This is kind of a belated surprise wedding gift for my pal @blakenewhem

Was an idea we talked about before the pandemic...I hope it’s not too late.

Carving/cutting will commence shortly.

I pulled 10 prints of my most recent #EmpathyIsTheBestSuperpower #BlockPrint! I ran out of paper, so I now have to order more to complete the series.

These were hand printed with @speedball_art professional #SuperGraphicBlack ink on acid free 100% cotton handmade 90LB art paper.

I pulled a test print of this sucker. I got a new ink to play with, so I wanted to see what the ink was like before I prepped the fancy paper I picked up to print on.

Additionally, making a test print give me an opportunity to see how it’s printing and make any last minute adjustments to the cuts. It also help to clean out all the loose linoleum particles that get stuck in the grooves, as even with a good brushing, some of these didn’t come out. You can see in the heart where some particles got stuck in the ink, as well as in the “E” in “Superpower”, where there was a particle which prevented the ink from getting onto the paper.

However, I am quite happy with the quality of the lines and textures. It’s pretty much exactly what I intended for this work.

With this piece I have picked up some #Speedball professional #SupergraphicBlack. As it’s an oil based ink, which means, once it’s completely dry, I should be able to do a watercolor wash over top of it.

Well at least my original concept was to wash this series with watercolors, but I’m really digging the likes and textures in black and white.

What do you folks think, should I leave it a black and white print series, or should I do the watercolor wash?
