I’ve updated one of my long-time images, Codfish, as the printing plate was getting a little worse for wear. Here it is… available as a card, mini-print, or framed mini-print.

In the midst of a print run…
Printing a complete line of cards, mini-prints, and bookmarks for spring orders as well as stocking my own shop shelves takes a while… When I started Norton’s Cove Studio almost ten years ago, working a 12 or 16 hour day was fairly common. I’m not up to that anymore though- aches and pains and grumpiness come from long hours doing the same thing now that I’m forty. So I take it slowly but surely. One colour of ink per day, taking days off in between, and keeping up on other projects at the same time make for a much happier middle aged Janet!
Today we’ll (my mother, Ollie, is my co-worker again today) be printing black.
I’ve also added all the new images to the Norton’s Cove Cards product line page. Have a look!

Eleanor [my trusty clean hand helper] and I printed about 100 cards yesterday, in yellow and red, including the six new designs. [The colour here is a bit off- more of a candy apple red than the bright orange-red you see here!] When I get more colours printed, I’ll have good scans for the card & mini-print page of the website…
New Cards and Minis in the Works
 |
| Starting 6 new plates for Norton’s Cove Cards & Mini-Prints. Drawings first, on paper and then transferred to linoleum with carbon paper. |
 |
| The drawings are more defined with India ink- what’s black stays and what’s white gets carved away. |
 |
| Labrador Puppy: Ready to be cleaned of the drawing material. |
 |
| A replacement for my worn out & popular Caplin. |
 |
| Two new images: Caribou and Lobster. |
 |
| A replacement Codfish. |
 |
| And a new one, a Polar Bear, still being carved. |
I’m getting ready for a huge print run of these as well as my older images: Cod Jigger, Dory, Mussels, Salt Fish, Sand Dollar, Schooner, Spring Ice, Squid, Starfish, & Teapot. Lots of paper needs to be cut first, and I need to count my current stock to make sure I print the things I don’t have lots of already. For my wholesale customers out there, this is a great time to get your order in!
Cod Jigger
 |
| Designed Fall 2010 Available in any ink colour combination on white paper as a card for $6, a mini-print for $12, or a framed mini-print for $40. |
