Flycatcher Press

This was a very full weekend 🌷💗 so grateful to share the space with amazing artists and vendors Wendell G. Taylor ODDJOBs Studio by Brie Lim Heather + Daniel Daam-Rossi Kali Talmon-Longden at our summer open house. A beautiful day with lots of wonderful folks stopping by and checking us out! Can’t wait to do this again in the fall. Sunday I led our intro to Linocut course and another fantastic group of curious people came together to try Linocut (most for the first time since highschool) and they created some great prints in a few hours. So lucky 🍀 thanks all!

Join us for another open studio event on July 25th 11-4pm and featuring some super awesome vendors, live poster printing, and all-around good times!

This month’s card of the month design was inspired by a vintage Japanese motorcycle ad. Three colour screenprint!!! I hope you like it!!

Hey pals! Join us for a summer open studio Saturday July 25th, 11-4! Printing, snacking, socializing!

CALL FOR VENDORS/FRIENDS:
The more the merrier we always say- are you a vintage vendor/ceramicist/cookie maker or other fine craftsperson who makes small wares?? We’d love to have another vendor guest or two grace our space on this day! (If you know us, you know the vibe- send me a dm!) if we can’t host you this time we’ll keep your contact close for a future open studio. 🌷❤️ no fee to vend of course just spread the word!

We already have the awesome Wendell G. Taylor rolling up in our laneway with the book van full of vintage reads. 📚 🚐 can’t wait!!!!!

I carved this little stamp while my workshop students were carving theirs this weekend. I love the immediacy of making a stamp, and the simplicity of using a stamp pad for inking. This is stamped in my favourite journal (which we carry in the store by the way!) the MD Midori planner- the paper is beautiful for all writing and I love the way the print is visible from behind on the paper but it’s not bleeding through.

Inspired by a can of chef boyardee. 🥫

A card suitable for giving to any daddio in your life. I was super happy with all of the textures that came out on this plate - I make my polymer plates (slide 3) for letterpress printing my cards myself with in our basement 🙃 shoutout to for the best digital drawing brushes too! ✍️

Another one I never got to eat at! But such a good location with the cutest lil side patio, now very much taken over by weeds but the streetcar mural still holding on tightly to the brick. Love this whole connected block in leslieville of two story buildings, okay okay diner was the bookend to bnb fish and chips (rip). Although it’s still there, and closed, it has current neighbours (albeit they are more for evening-fare) that we love and

Did you ever eat here?? What do you think it’s gunna be?? Over/under on how long it will remain vacant??
