Hey, hoi. My name is Roy. I'm a visual artist, living & working in The Netherlands.

#printmaking is my thing. Particularly #LEGOletterpress.

Yes, you can make #letterpress prints with formes built from toy bricks :)

I created the *50 birds* series to figure out what's possible with this custom technique: royscholten.nl/project/50-bird
& we made a book about it: royscholten.nl/project/lego-le

The blog is at: bildung.royscholten.nl/

Enjoy!
Roy

Stylized print of a Sanderling running across the beach, going from left to right. This bird has a white belly, grey back with black wing tips, feet, eye and beak. A light blue in the background suggests the sea. It really is in a hurry!

It’s the last few days of @secret7s charity auction raising money for @warchild Have you been to see all the record sleeves up for grabs at the @nowgalleryse10 in Greenwich? Not to worry, they’re all online too. Can you guess which two are mine? I’ll give you a clue, they’re letterpress printed 😂 #letterpress #warchild #secret7 Exhibition & Auction both end on June 1st

She’s here 😍. Introducing my new Vandercook 0 tabletop proof press, manufactured sometime between 1937 and 1960. Thanks so much to Marc Tremblay with AML Crating, Ottawa, who palleted the press and contracted its shipping. And thanks to my friend David Lau for the awesome sticker. #letterpress #mediahistory #bookhistory Update: manufacture date 1950. Happy 75th birthday, Vandercook 0 #07377!

Table top proofing press (a long flat steel press bed with a handled end covering a black rubber roller) sits on a table above stacked job cases. On the press is a sticker that says “this machine kills Nazis,” after Woody Guthrie’s famous guitar sticker.
