Letterpress Card: Tanuki in the Forest

This original design was hand-painted with Chinese paintbrushes and calligraphy ink on premium raw rice paper, as well as with watercolor brushes and pigments on thick cotton rag paper.  The paintings were then made into letterpress plates and individually pressed twice (once for each color) on a vintage flatbed cylinder press, onto soft cotton paper.

Please note that due to the nature of letterpress printing, colors may vary slightly from what is pictured.

A1 / 4-Baronial card size (3.5 x 4.875 inches).  Paired with gold envelope.

Blank inside.
