Illustrated in Adobe Draw. Digitally printed at a local print shop. A tomatoey holiday card, pretty self-explanatory.
My first love.
Stationery is where it all started for me. Little printed magic that is nested in a beautiful paper envelope, the intersection of words and visual, artwork that exists to be given to someone to say something that can’t be communicated another way, and that message can be held and kept. Maybe I was sad to outgrow the passing-notes-in-class phase of life and wanted to extend it into my work and personal practice.
But here we are, and here’s a smattering of the stationery I’ve conceptualized, designed, illustrated — sometimes printed myself — and mailed. Or that I was hired to make, which continues to be a dream.
