About Mission Creek Press |
|
Mission Creek Press is a small private press established in 1996 to publish my own artist’s books and bindings.
The original studio space overlooked the creek behind the old St. Andrew’s school - hence the name. After 15 years, it seemed pointless to make a change, although I do publish my toss-offs under the Desultory Press imprint.
Much of my early client work revolved around paper made at the studio using fibers gathered nearby and I still feel a need to create paper on a regular basis, although it’s now made almost exclusively for my own work. I still have images of some of my favorite invitations online here just to share ideas and I’m happy to refer clients to small studios and artists who do very fine work. I’ve also kept some images of the papermaking process online here for informational purposes.
You can see my most current artist’s books and bindings here and see a select resume here.
You can also get a peek into my studio practice on the December 11, 2008 episode of Oregon Public Broadcasting’s Oregon Art Beat. It’s available to view online at the OPB website.
