Enkidu Publications in full effect!
Of great import: Isak Applin and I have started up Enkidu Publications. We have released a collaborative relief print! We still have some if you are interested.

Enkidu Publications is a small, private publishing firm devoted to creating and distributing handcrafted, yet accessible, contemporary
images. Keep the River on the Right was conceived and drawn by Isak
Applin and I. 100 copies of Keep the River on the Right were printed on
honen Japanese paper by David Wolfe and Isak at his press in southern Maine.

We have many wood block prints in the works, so stay tuned!
