. . I really enjoyed working with Jongjoon in Cheongju on these prints. The process of designing and proofing is different with each client / collaboration. This one began with a respectful, warm & friendly email and continued in this way right up the framing and hanging. . I enjoyed every moment of the process. From the writing to the proofing and finally printing. It was a pleasure to work with you. . Please visit for coffee, jazz, funk and disco @capture_kr . 🍃 ☕️ 🙏🏼

. . One of the very first fonts I brought 18 years ago. Hand cut TUSCAN. Mostly from one font but the BIG E (pictured)and a BIG T are from another fount. . The provenance is unknown to me. I’d guess that it’s French & it’s clearly hand cut which places it somewhere in the mid 19th century. Possibly earlier. At 40 lines (6.6”) it’s the biggest font I own but sadly incomplete. Perhaps one day I’ll get the other sorts made. . It’s beautiful to print with, the end grain is clear and smooth.

. . Orwell warned us in 1949 with his dystopian masterpiece 1984 & here we are under the boot of a sickening & hateful left wing government. Less and less freedom and two tier policing. . . Europe is slowly but steadily being destroyed while the establishment rubs its hands in the shadows. . . . #wrongthink #doublethink #georgeorwell #1984 #kierstarmerisawanker

. . Covid 19 prints from 2020 - 2022. Some people are still wearing face masks. Why? My opinion on the lockdown has changed somewhat. I’m not sure what I believe now. At the very least it seems to have been an overreaction. . . In Japanese it says ストップコロナ STOP KORONA
