We have Anthony Skirvin of Ape Do Good screen printing to thank for introducing us to Jeana Hadley. We are fans of the nautical themes in her music posters and design work at Sea Level Studio, as well as the fantastic music shows she organized at 3 fish studios.

We share an appreciation for our Sunset neighborhood, the music of Farallons, and Fort Funston.

We began our studio collaboration with an introduction to the reduction process via tiny stamp prints. Below you see the first of three colors in Hadley's HighFive Stamp along side the finished image. The final stamp print is a three color reduction, with each color carved from the same small stamp block.

Next, we embarked on our woodcut reduction print. Pictures below document the process in which we worked out some ideas and colors in paint, began carving the first color, printed the first color. After printing more than we needed of the first color, we carved out the second color from the same block and printed.
