Studio Photographs
This is a group of pictures I've taken over the last month or so of the studio.

7 Stones Press began as a small dream of my wife and I's when we first started talking to each other in undergrad. Several years later, one huge studio space, an old used Griffin Lithography Press, and the seven lithography stones we had scratched together for when we finally had a printshop to work in. 7 Stones Press is a small run invitational fine arts press. We choose artists that we would like to print with and have several students from the College of the Sequoias assist in printing.
