December 2012

Thank you to Lily who took these great photos during the seven weeks of the ABCs of Letterpress class she participated in! Lily brought a real camera every week to take photos. The rest of us just used our cell phones. I had a great time with this group. We even had a little Christmas party with baked goods and non-alcoholic Mimosas!

I love this shot!
Luis's hand set project... nice use of ornaments and centring.

Lily's form ready to be put to the test.
Will everything stay in place when it is lifted?

2013!

Happy New Year!
Akemashite omedetou gozaimasu!
Wishing everyone happiness, peace, health and love!

Kozo Studio will be closed for a much needed clean up and press tune-up until the end of January 2013.
Workshops will resume at the end of January so keep an eye out.

Meanwhile, here are some of the pics from the last two ABCs of Letterpress classes.
