I made this in 2007, I think, when a friend asked me to create a cover for his poetry chapbook. He writes very visceral poems, and I like legendary cats as creepy and visceral beings. Wing’d was one of my first pieces after doing a lot of studying on Japanese ukiyo-e prints.

We hope that it finds a good home with you, and thanks for being one of the folks who took home a postcard pack.

Everyone else can still purchase the postcard packs and get a nice print of the leg drawing contained therein.

We spent a lot of time debating what to do with the backs of the cards and eventually just settled on leaving them blank. Not only did that help us keep the final cost down for y’all, but it makes them a little more flexible. You can still send them in the mail, or use them to capture your own sketches or write out a whole story and leave them for someone to find.

If you are local to Des Moines and would like to save on shipping you’ll be able to purchase Sketches 2009 at the next Market Day on August 29.
