Jen Corace Limited Edition Letterpress Prints

If you are a dreamer, come in,
If you are a dreamer, a wisher, a liar,
A hope-er, a pray-er, a magic bean buyer...
If you're a pretender, come sit by my fire
For we have some flax-golden tales to spin.
Come in!
Come in!

- Shel Silverstein, Invitation, Where the Sidewalk Ends

A word to the adults:

We love make-believe, and dress-up and pretending. We love art that requires you to suspend belief and rely on imagination. We love the art of Jen Corace. And we're thrilled to offer two beautiful letterpress prints featuring the her work. Jen created this pair of little kids on big adventures exclusively for Mahar Drygoods in an edition of 125 per image. We were fortunate to have artist and designer Jean Krikorian print the edition on her 1940’s Vandercook proofing press with gorgeous results. Jean selected a delicious warm white cotton watercolor paper which shows off the fine embossing effect of the letterpress. The two color prints are executed in subtle tones of butterscotch and sage with dark chocolate brown lines. Your prints will arrive safely flat packed and ready for display or framing. Buy both images as a pair and save $20.! For larger images, see this blog entry.
