"Forever a collector of journals and stationery, I decided to start making my own collection. Fall of 2022, I was introduced to printmaking in a class at Solano Community College and was instantly charmed by the messy ink, the uncoordinated dance of the printing process, and the unique personality of each print. Then, I discovered the art of book binding in relaxing studio vlog videos. I started making repurposed journals not too long after and created this brand about 7 weeks later."
