haunted house (church) next door...
experimenting with printing on wood...

a few photos... i haven't had much time to post lately. i've been (happily) busy with: getting used to my new ruitine with gus, filling orders for the d*s shop (which finished up this weekend, thank you again grace! i'm looking forward to the new set of designers this week), and hanging out with out of town visitors...

Your new prints on wood are fabulous and I love Gus and his adorable red sweater ! :)I wonder if my siamese cat would like someone like Gus to hang out with ?! Probably not,unfortunately !

Must ask; Is the church next door really haunted or am I missing something...? Tell me more! Love ghoststories (if there is some)!

it's not really haunted! (as far as i know!...) the church has been vacant for about 10 years, and it's very spooky!

for this one i carved a stamp and printed on the wood by hand. for the blocks in the design*sponge shop, i had a screen made and printed myself.

Sounds interesting... a VACANT (for about 10 years?! It MUST be haunted!) and SPOOKY church! I want that kind of neighbour too!

lena, I've been meaning to tell you how much I love your wood blocks, I acted too slowly and of course now you're all sold out. Which is fabulous!

I really love your experimental stuff too!
Hope you're having fun with your pup :)
