The creative mind is like a sentry that never sleeps – ever vigilant, always in search of new inspiration and ideas. And because my imagination has ready access to screen printing and letterpress gear, I get to produce my own line of goodies inspired by my love for traditional printing methods, classic design styles and an occasionally warped sense of humor.
