Just a quick note to let you know that my “San Francisco is for Carnivores” poster is now available in my esty shop for $25.
I’m super proud of this design. I drew a map of all the San Francisco neighborhoods and fit that within the shape of a pig, making it into a butchery diagram (complete with labels for ham, hock, and jowl)!
It was super well received at Indie Mart and I’m really happy that it’s now up in the shop! I’ll be posting the grey version later today.
The supplies are limited for now, because I’m printing them at home with my super serious archival pigment ink Epson R2400 printer. The ink requires a 24 hour drying time, and for now I don’t have the physical space to make tons of them. I’m in the process of finding a local printer (offset or screen printer) to make them in slightly larger quantities.
**** UPDATE – as of December 2010, posters are offset print by Pinball, using soy inks on 100% recycled paper. They are AMAZING. The only difference in the new prints is that I got rid of the white border. And because they are offset print, some slight imperfections occur .. like a teeny tiny dot here and there, which is par for the course with offset printing, and make the posters look even more awesome.****
yeah for posting!
I love your poster!! I just stumbled upon it in twitter today… love, love it!! I'm a food blogger in San Francisco, too! It's very cool to meet fellow city bloggers!!
