Just wanted to give you a little teaser of what’s about to come… I’m not going to say much, so as not to spoil the surprise, but I thought I’d drop a few clues by way of my messy drawings— warts and all. As you can see by all the smudges and arrows, doin’ it …
Holy smokes!
I meant to post this last night, but it was all I could do just to get to bed and not fall asleep on the floor, buried under all the receipts and mailers. So as of last night, just over twenty-four hours after posting Drill, Baby, Drill online, we are sold out. I am just …
Drill, Baby, Drill
Okay, I know the title is a bit controversial. But it was either that or something laden with obscenities—Jessica and I are feeling murderous less than charitable towards the oil industry at the moment. Thus far the Deepwater Horizon/British Petroleum oil “spill” (leak? deluge? hemorrhage?) has poured tens of millions of gallons of oil into …
Yes, there is a manatee in it.
The next print in our series will be making its in-person debut on Tuesday—these few snippets might give you a clue as to our latest theme. Jessica and I will be doing our dog-and-pony show at the Gig Harbor branch of the Pierce County Library; if you’ve missed our previous lectures, come check it out! …
A flat-out smashing time
Note: this is an excerpt of the Wayzgoose post over on Chandler’s studio blog. You can read the full post about the event here. Inked up, hand-pulled, and voilà! Our second collaborative steamroller print, an “unofficial” Dead Feminist print, inspired by Cora Smith Eaton King, who in 1909 climbed Mt. Rainier with a party of …
Start your steamroller engines
Jessica and I are carving like mad this week, getting ready for some quality steamroller time. Next Sunday, April 25, is the sixth-annual Wayzgoose at King’s Books, right here in Tacoma. This year promises to be the biggest hullabaloo yet, with letterpress magnetic poetry, B.Y.O. t-shirt printing, papermaking demos, artist tables, and the star of …
Girl power
Jessica and I have had some seriously huge smiles for the past couple of days: we just received our copies of the latest issue of Kiki Magazine, which contains a feature on the Dead Feminists! Before we were contacted for an interview, neither of us had heard of the magazine, but I can tell you …
Just Desserts
This year marks the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage in Washington—a feat only made possible by the collaborative efforts of many dedicated people of every walk of life and political stripe. In this spirit, we present our seventh broadside in our series, Just Desserts. Through our research at the Washington State Library, we discovered that …
We heart archivists
It’s just about that time again: Jessica and I are working hard on the next broadside. She’s poring through texts and historical facts, and I’m pencilling as fast as my tendonitis will let me. This time we’ll be unveiling the new piece at the Washington State Library near Olympia; the staff invited us to give …
The Curie Cure
I guess it was inevitable that Jessica and I would veer back into controversial territory eventually—we’re a little ornery, after all (as if you hadn’t guessed). We’ve been sitting on this concept for several months now, and have put it off a couple of times in order to move Thea Foss and Harriet Tubman ahead …
