  1. The grand Széchenyi Chain Bridge (1849), the oldest permanent suspension bridge in the Hungarian Capital, Budapest, glows with warm lights at night. Its reflection dances on the calm waters of the Danube rive; a lasting symbol of national freedom and unity.

  2. My new printer is fabulous!

    It doesn’t do the full-bleed greeting cards I’ve made, nor the full-bleed 11x17” prints. It does other sizes, but not those two.

    But what it does do is gicleé pigment printing instead of the dye-based ink I was using. And I can now make prints at larger sizes than I was previously.

    So I’ll be shifting my future work toward 16x20" limited edition print runs of 10 (with optional frames) instead of the 11x17" runs of 30.

    We’ll see how that goes.

    The ink is cheaper in the long run, I’m told. And I’ve been stuck in a “must-make-new-stuff-constantly” cycle for a while now, and I hope that perhaps this will help me slow down and concentrate on quality instead of quantity. It’s a huge step forward for me, and I think it will elevate the caliber of the presentation of my work.

    The print quality is still amazing, and while it’s subtle there is indeed a different character to the appearance of the prints. Maybe I’m imagining it, but there seems to be less “translucency” to the image? I dunno. It’s just more substantive somehow.

    It will be a long slog to “retro-format” cards without the wrap-around over the spine, but I have to wonder if that might make them look more like actual “art cards” instead of mass-produced items. I’m excited about it.

    Onward!

  3. One of my favorite things to do is turn my nature photos into printable cards.
    It makes me so happy when my photography is used to pass on messages of love, care, and hope.
    Next up: The Flower Garden Collection by SJ Cragwick Designs, a collection of blank cards capturing the beauty of Finland and southwest Montana.
    I'll have these beauties in my shop soon.

  5. My stylized Art Nouveau painting inspired by“Jack and the Beanstalk” is finally available as a greeting card in my shop on Goimagine!

    I print them in my own studio on my own 8-color printer, then crease, package, and ship them to you directly. There’s no intermediary drop-shipping manufacturer involved. I do it all myself, and create each card as its ordered.

    This piece is a richly textured abstracted illustration that I’m really proud of. I did it in Procreate without the assistance of any image generation ridiculousness. The piece took 9 hours to complete with 4714 strokes of my Apple Pencil. The front cover wraps around the spine to the back, and the interior is blank.

  10. It's less than two weeks until the Spring Equinox (Ostara), the date when night and day are of equal length. It's wonderful to see everything gearing up for the year: we're watching birds chase one another in courtship (and territorial disagreements!), green shoots beginning to appear on shrubs and trees, and early Spring flowers blooming!

    So here are just a few of our favourite cards of the season :) Art by Samantha Symonds, Rachel Blackwell, Sam Cannon and Amanda Clark.

    I'm also hard at work developing a "Greeting Card Set of the Month" club on my patron site. So incredibly excited!

    I think using cards & stationery is a great way to express connection. It means more than a simple DM or text. It's less passive. And it's fun!

    It's coming soon!
