We are delighted to release a set of stunning letterpress prints by Sweden-based artist and educator Miles Johnston. Originally conceived as part of last year's Inktober exercise, these small ink pieces lend themselves beautifully to the letterpress printing method, by which the images are transferred onto a thick cotton paper stock using engraved metal cylinders, black ink and a good deal of pressure. The resulting prints have a wonderful, almost tactile finish to them.
To make the release even more special we have only printed 100 copies of each of six images, all signed and numbered by Miles and available both individually or as a set; and as a little thank you to the first 30 people who purchase all six prints we will be throwing in a seventh print for free.
Miles Johnston's Inktober letterpress prints will be available this Thursday 05 September at a random time exclusively from our shop.
Our advice is that you sign up to our newsletter here as subscribers will receive an e-mail alert the moment they go on sale (you can unsubscribe easily afterwards).
