Salt & Cedar Letterpress

When visiting Eastern Market last Saturday we had a chance to stop by the letterpress studio Salt & Cedar. The studio, located at the corner of Fisher and Riopelle, boasts 3000 square feet of space. The space will put on workshops on traditional and experimental printing, ‘zine making, book structures, and papermaking. This Sunday will feature a journal making class taught by Leon Johnson. Be sure to check out their Facebook page for upcoming classes and events.

Reclaimed Preview: Taro Takizawa

Our friend Taro Takizawa is an talented printmaker originally from Japan and currently based out of Mt. Pleasant. I was super excited that he wanted to be part of our Reclaimed Show, and made not one, but two prints for it. The detail on the prints, especially considering that they are wood cuts, is insane.

Stukenborg
Between a busy weekend of house painting and printing Christina and I went to Astro Coffee and Mudgies in Corktown in Detroit to grab coffee and lunch. At each of these placed we saw awesome letterpress prints advertising events around Detroit. After doing some digging we discovered that the prints were produced by Stukenborg, aka Bryan Christopher Baker. Bryan is a recent transplant from New York who now resides in Corktown. His current project is creating beautiful patterned prints using hundreds of actual dice.
