I thought it would be fun to honour the past ten years by sharing a Fairy painting from each year, beginning in the year 2008 to 2018...

And for the New Adventures...
I am delighted and incredibly honoured to have the opportunity to work with Chad Pastotnik of Deep Wood Press. Chad has been seemingly hiding away in his woodland fairy palace (with amazing bindery & studios) on the Cedar River in Northern Michigan, creating beautiful letterpress books, as well as fine art intaglio printing, woodcut & linocut print making, and book binding for the past 24 years. I recently discovered Chad through a local print making exhibition where he gave a talk and demonstration on the intaglio printing process. That in turn has led to the beginnings of book binding dreams come true for me, of which he has been so kind and generous to make happen through the sharing of his knowledge and talents.
Please find Chad's beautiful work & happenings here:
