also if this is helpful for anyone - for tabling i currently use kraft paper sleeves + for shipping i use chipboard mailers + vellum interior bags from eco enclose! i've also used glassine envelopes for sticker packaging. will probably be trying some combo of glassine/vellum + board for this now..

oo fun idea! i've used glassine/vellum in the past (for interior packaging / stickers) + i personally like how prints look thru them haha but i was kind of concerned about whether not getting a perfectly clear view might make people more hesitant.. i guess i also won't know until i try lol

ok good to know! that was what i was thinking since i've used glassine for stickers before but wasn't sure if the translucency would be more of an issue with prints

want to try to actually consign/etc zines next year but i also have 100000 prints but also it seems the only way i can just put them naked into a opaque paper bag is if i'm physically tabling

has anybody who wholesales prints / has their work in stores figured out a way to package without plastic or at least something a little less "will be around forever" than poly sleeves.. i get why the expectation is bag + board but it's one of the reasons why i'm hesitant to do that....

some movies i watched this year.. one of my faves was probably charisma (by kurosawa kiyoshi). this is just new watches but also special mention to peking opera blues restoration.. was rly happy to get to see that in a theater

thanks so much!

i feel like its such a struggle.. my impulse toward local tones / shadows vs stylized contrast..

no other choice would make a great double bill with tokyo sonata..

i was like oh a new printmaker i can look up and then when i searched his name i was just so confused
