We debuted our brand new design, "Learn from the pine," at the market, and the response completely blew us away. We didn't even have time to take official studio photos as we made the frame on Friday and printed early Saturday morning before you nearly cleaned us out!
Shoutout to this awesome customer for letting us snap a quick photo of the very first print in the wild.
The highlight of the day? Meeting a few fellow poetry lovers at the booth who actually own Matsuo BashΕ books and recognized the philosophy immediately. Connecting over art and literature in the middle of a busy market is exactly why we do this.
This piece is deeply personal to us. The graphic is a magnificent pine tree we loved from the property we sold back in 2023. Paired with BashΕ's wordsβ"Learn about the pine from the pine; learn about the bamboo from the bamboo"βitβs a reminder to set aside our preconceptions and look directly to the source. For us, it beautifully bridges a precious memory of our past with a daily practice of being truly present.
A customer mentioned wanting to see this design on green, so we are excited to announce that our next print run will include forest green in bamboo!
We will post both options on our website as soon as they are ready!
