I’m always still amazed to hear from people in other countries that have run across my site one way or another. A month or so back was delighted to hear about this post from flatmaids.de that the Dapper Mans Guide was featured in. Take a gander at the beard and mustache guide from across the pond at http://www.flatmaids.de/state-of-the-bart
Always happy to get any posts on OMG! This is a from little while back – but doesn’t hurt to toot my own horn a bit… Visit OMG for poster up-to-date poster news!
The folks at French Paper have featured the Wooly Jamie promo on the French Paper Sample Room! Head on over and check out the other featured prints and peruse the fine products from your favorite family run paper mill!
It’s been some time – but HSR is hard at work on some new prints and should have some new work up in the next month or so! Until then, if you happen to find yourself in or around Rock Hill, SC – stop by Gallery Up where you can check out some great local work and also snag some HumanShapedRobot prints in person! I’m excited to have my work available at Gallery Up along with so many talented artists!
I’m super excited and honored to be featured on FPO today! A self promo piece I sent out earlier this year for my day job, take a look to see what the robot looks like – illustrated at least… Take a look here!
This is where the magic happens, and also where I do my prints… A quick panoramic tour of my state of the art, garage studio – otherwise known as the hotbox when it’s not winter. My DIY “letterpress” on the left, homemade vacuum table, various printing paraphernalia and then the shipping department towards the right. Behind me, not shown is a whole mess of screens, some chemicals and a line to hang dry prints.
I often get asked about framing prints – and where to find frames for the sometimes “odd” sizes of prints sold on the site. First, I’d quickly like to explain why some prints are the size they are, then give you a little advise from my experience framing prints. Please note – I’m no expert by any means – so consult your nearest framing expert before you do this on any super fancy prints (or give me a shout and I’ll do my best to help!). Read More
Nice little blurb on Fancy! Fancy is a site where people can catalog their favorite things from around the inter-webs. That’s real swell of you Fancy!
I usually pop cards into tubes or handout to anyone I might want to check out my site. I wanted to share a way that I’ve used to make “business cards” quick, but most importantly on the cheap. I use a custom rubber stamp, and time cards that I cut by hand. (Everyone get out your X-acto’s!) Read More
I finished this a couple of weeks ago, but hadn’t had time to update the blog for some time. Overall I’m pretty happy with how it turned out – I would have ultimately liked to use the glow in the dark ink, but the yellow popped so much I had to use it. Unfortunately, the silver doesn’t display well in pictures, but it really shines on the dark blue paper! Head over to the shop and look at a couple of the detailed shots. The final size on this one is 12.5 x 19 inches.
Graphic design robot by day, screen print robot by night - HumanShapedRobot was created as a home for prints I do in my free time. More recently the SpareRobotParts Blog was created to stay more up-to-date with print news, process threads, showcase unfinished projects and random inspiration from around the interwebs.
