Print Shop Organization

We made two nice updates to the print shop today.

First, we recycled a shelf that had outlived its usefulness at home to become printmaking ink storage. This required, among other things, drilling into concrete mortar (slow, dusty).

A gold shelf on a cinder block wall, filled with ink bottles. To the left is a clock, showing 5:42 p.m., and a red fire extinguisher. Below is a radiator cover, with ink brayers set on it.

Second, we came up with a way of displaying our inventory of prints for a planned series of pop-up sales. We ended up using vinyl gutters for this, which was inexpensive ($22, all-in) and easy to install.

A bulletin board and a black board. On top of them are 4 pieces of art, framed.

Stay tuned for announcements of our pop-ups, where you’ll get to see both in person.
