A custom notecard set for artist, Stephanie Miller
Stephanie did a series of
quick brush and ink sketches she refers to as, 2 minute sketches. This was a series of 4 ravens that she
commissioned me to print a set of note cards. The jet black of the letterpress ink
made a striking contrast to the white of the lettra stock. She sells them on
her website, StephanieMillerArtist.com. The crows were printed on the
Vandercook 4 and the indicia on the back on a C&P Pilot Press. I decided to
print them on two separate presses. This gave me the ability to make the ravens a super dense black and give detail to the indicia. Although this added time to
the project I was quite happy with the end result.
