Paper Peace

If on the hunt for happy holiday gifts, we've designed two wall hanging art pieces for our Winter collection.

The first, our hand-drawn "Radiate Good Vibes" poster, is an expansion of our most loved greeting cards, manifested in a framable art print, hot foil stamped on natural white 100% cotton paper, and printed in a signed, limited edition of 200.

It's a deeply meaningful piece for us, as it was conceptualized during Nic's recovery from a serious hand injury last year. Thankfully, he's all better now, which we believe is due in part to the positive healing power emanating from this artwork. Available in two colors; matte grey, and metallic gold, ready to reflect positive light all over your abode. —$45 Ea.

The Peaceful Wall Hanging can be used as a holiday ornament, or inspiring wall adornment year-round. Roughly 7” x 10”, and hot foil-stamped on two pieces of sturdy recycled board, then hung with paper twine handmade in Vienna, each is displayed on letterpressed backing in a clear bag, and sealed with a blank corresponding "To/From" sticker, for easy gifting. It is available in 2 Colors—white on heavy chipboard, or camel on thick white matboard. —$25 Ea.

Both the Vibes print and Peaceful wall hanging (click images for detailed view) can be purchased through Dream Collective (L.A.), or directly through us by emailing thunderwingpress@gmail.com

Cards of a Feather.

As a new year's gift for clients and friends, we designed a card-set in the shape of a feather and Oak leaf, to bring a bit of the beautiful Hudson Valley into the lives of those we adore. We wanted the cards to feel more like figural keepsakes, to be hung as ornaments for the holidays and beyond.

J.B. illustrated both the feather and the leaf in a calligraphic style, rendered initially by hand, then hot stamped onto thick paper in gold and silver metallic foils. We then had the ornaments cut into their given shapes, and bound them together with antique linen string, acquired on our last voyage to Paris.
Each set was enclosed in a legal-sized envelope, stamped on the flap in metallic gold foil with the word "Peace". We displayed the sets at our holiday open studio, and to our joy, they practically flew out the door, just like the hawk feather found in our garden, that inspired the idea in the first place.
