Letterpress / Typesetting

I love letterpress, it just makes me sad (as a very impatient person) whenever I remember how long it takes. I had done some typesetting in my elective and really enjoyed it, but felt that there wasn't much scope for creativity. Again, as with the screenprinting workshop, I was shown a different side! Even though time consuming, you can be creative with layout, alignment, fonts, weights and point sizes.

I choose a lyrics from The Specials song 'Too Much Too Young'. It is the soundtack to my life... as if I was singing. Makes me happy to be who I am, and can we really ask for anything more in life?
