I'm a librarian and digital designer who wants to shine a light on the wonderful art tucked away in archives and libraries.

How do you create and print the art?

I search through archives to unearth interesting images in the public domain. When I see something that clicks for me, I download it and then start to noodle around with it digitally. Often images are slightly fuzzy, so I work on making them crisper and/or brighter, plus I sharpen the edges. Depending on what I'm going for, I may adjust the art, add my own drawings to them, layer different pieces in a collage effect, add a text overlay, and make other embellishments. It's an interactive process and I repeat it until I feel it is ready.

When I receive an order, I send the art to a professional printer in the US who will send the art directly to you.

I DO NOT dropship from China or use premade altered art.

I partner with a printer who knows how to create museum-grade prints on high-quality paper with acid-free inks. Once I receive an order, I request a copy from my printer and they will send it directly to you.

I looked high and low to find a printer that could provide high-quality work quickly.

Do you do custom and personalized orders?

Yes! I'd love to hear what you have in mind and then I can let you know if and how I can help. Maybe you have a concept but can't figure out how to execute it? Perhaps you want to customize one or my existing prints? Or maybe you want to brainstorm with me about the perfect print for yourself or a friend? Just drop me a note and we can take it from there. No pressure!

Do you accept returns?

Your order is printed just for you, and I can't accept returns. However, let me know in the unusual event that your art arrives damaged. It is very helpful if you can send me pictures in those cases. Then I will get in touch with my print partner and see how we can make it right.
