Devious Journal Entry

Tue Mar 10, 2009, 7:58 PM
Book Cart Press is now up and running. "Dismount" is the first print I have editioned since getting the last of my equipment in place and it will be my submission for the 3rd Annual Oregon Ink Spot Exchange. More etchings are on the way.

Also, I have been toying with the idea of self publishing a monograph of some of my work. I'm mostly thinking about collecting some of my hand made books into a single volume. If anyone has any comments about this idea, please let me know. I could use advice on self-publishing services as well as what books people are most interested in seeing collected and published for sale.

I hope you enjoy the work, and have a lovely day.

-EDIT-

The newest print is for the Chance Operations exchange being run by Red Circle Press in Idaho. I'm also looking at doing Iowa's 9th annual postcard exchange this April. All you printmakers may consider participating. The random prints you get as part of the exchange are hit and miss when it comes to quality, but the exchanges are fun and a great way to get your work seen by more people. I've always received at least one very nice print out of each random return exchange I've done.

I really enjoy doing print exchanges so if you're setting one up, let me know.

nice touch. great work. i wish to be talented like that
thank you for the fav :heart: you have very unique style! keep working that on!
You're welcome, and I'll do my best.

Have you ever seen any of Sergey Hrapov's prints? Your 'slodki' piece in particular reminds me of some of his stuff. Keep at it yourself.
Oh, well in fact, I didn't have a slightest clue of that Artist beforehand, but after you've mentioned it I had to find out about his works etc. and they're truly hilarious, or absolutely fabulous should I say. And that's a way too big compliment, I'm really flattered, thank you! and sorry for my crappy English :flaguk:
I'm glad you enjoyed Hrapov's prints. I don't know if you're familiar with all the ex libris printmakers out there. Hrapov is one of my favorites. Oleg Denisenko and Brunovsky are both a little more serious in tone, but their work is definitely to be admired.

Check out [link] if you want to see their work and a bunch of other ex libris prints.
I seriously did enjoy them. And Denisenko -sigh - I think I fell in love with his works instantly. And Brunovsky has also very unique, surrealistic style. Not to mention this geniuses Brazda and Noszarin and..oh they've all so interesting and inspiring art! Sorry for my excitement and fuzzing. This is like a brand new world for my kind of dummy. And above all, thank you for that link! :heart: :heart: :heart:
:cake: Happy birthday this month! :aww:
