We have shown what printing large wood type in multiple ink colors looks like recently but we have received a lot of inquiries about what it would look like using one of our old letterpress cuts.
The order from left to right in the galley tray at the beginning is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Some of the inks are oil base and some are rubber base. In this video, Jared letterpress printed a large halftone of the most prominent part of our state flag, the California Grizzly bear.
This halftone is a reproduction of Charles Nahl’s drawing, “Grizzly Bear,” which he designed in 1854. We also thought this print was great for this time, since June 14th is the anniversary of the Bear Flag Revolt and when the first Bear Flag was created.
After five weeks of constant weaving I have finished my awesome neon rainbow shawl (in time for pride no less)! I get warm happy childhood memories of arcade/bowling lane/roller rink carpets just looking at it. It's absolutely massive and I'm going to wear it everywhere as soon as it's actually chilly outside.
Also here's a close-up to give you a better idea of what the colors look like in person. It is eye-bleeding and I love it.
