A 3x3 surprise and Hardpressed Letterpressed volume one ready to go!

So a few weeks back i was pleasantly surprised to be notified of my work being awarded gold for the upcoming 3x3 pro show. I am honored to have my work chosen for this kind of honor, and this is my first award of this nature, so it means a lot to me. Something like this gives me the confidence to keep pushing where i have been exploring. I am humbled to be in such great company.
 
Also, i wanted to give an update on the Hardpressed Letterpress Project. The first set of cards is finished and ready to go. There are nine participating artists in this first set, and they are- Edel Rodriguez, Nancy Stahl, Mark Todd, Myself, Tatsuro Kiuchi, Ross MacDonald, Steve Schudlich, Micah Player, and Leo Espinosa.
I have a few other artists who are in the second edition that is well underway.
I was able to convince Ross Macdonald to typeset and print the paper bands that wrap each individual set, and he did an amazing job.
A limited number of these card sets are available for sale starting this week at the Illustration Conference.
