Serrote

Serrote is a Portugeuse letterpress shop that offers letterpressed notebooks for sale. Each notebook’s cover is adorned with great retro illustration and the pages are letterpressed with lines, dots and textures. The notebooks are also produced in limited editions.

Tablecloth Caderno, all pages have that wonderful blind letterpressed texture.

Nothing Something

NothingSomething‘s portfolio of work is wonderfully tactile and is an all around visual treat. Watercolor influences, handdrawn illustration and great hand lettering make NothingSomething’s work truly gorgeous.

Watercolor + digital work galore.

Tiny Showcase!

Tiny Showcase periodically chooses talented artists, produces one of their pieces and sells them in limited editions for $20. Each piece is around 6″ square and is rendered gorgeously on fine papers with cutting-edge printing techonlogy. The artists each choose a worthy charity to send parts of the proceeds to. Sign up for the newsletter and get alerts for when new prints are added Tuesday evenings. Buy quickly, they sell out fast.

Hot to death.

Etsy

Etsy is a new community that fosters entrepreneurship among people in the crafting, printmaking and art communities. It offers a marketplace for sellers to sell their handmade items to interested parties. Think of it like eBay, but for non-commercial goods. Love the color selection tools!

eBay for crafters and artists.

The Chung

I knew Dave from my classes in college. His paintings are so playful and, well, funny. He is releasing a book soon. Be sure to keep an eye out.
