Hi Ginny-jan!

Jeff Nelson's design made it onto Brockman's shirt - and his shirt made it into the sale.  

Yes it had been washed.  I have a cat, thank you.

That's Maddy.

Nobody would feel right about this without John Allen's approval!

Brockman brought his 1502 class over.

Brockman too, is impressed.

Merch Printing Party!

We've got a big sale coming up! Check it out here: 

Here's a peek at some of the goods we whomped up at our Merchandise party.

We'll have lots of prints, shirts, buttons, magnets, and rabbit gear for sale at this fundraiser.

It's a good deal for everyone involved.

I told her not to eat the inks, but keeping inks in yogurt cups has always been a liability.

Jeff is impressed.

Visiting Artists Michael Barnes & Michael Krueger

Michael Barnes & Michael Krueger came to the U last week as visiting artists and speakers.  They spent the weekend working on solar plates, and a massive collaborative stone litho project.  Bohemians had the privilege of being there to witness and facilitate the print glory.   Here's just a taste of the business in our shop those few days - for more pics check here, and stay tuned for video coming right up.

A very fun, productive weekend!  Thanks to the Michaels, Jenny, and everyone who came out to help!
