A Moser Bible Feathursday

This week we present two exquisite, feathered wood engravings by printmaker, illustrator, book designer, and fine-press publisher Barry Moser. These original prints were actually produced from Resingrave, and are from Psalms 124 and 147 in Moser’s massive, two-volume tour de force The Holy Bible published in 1999 by his Pennyroyal Press in North Hatfield, Massachusetts, in an edition of 400 copies in full vellum hand-bound by Claudia Cohen and Sarah Creighton. Click on the images to see the passages these illustrate.

Starting on the easy stuff before beginning on the bird—a eastern meadowlark. The song of the meadowlark is one I heard all of the time while growing up in Oklahoma and it’s still almost always singing somewhere in the back of my head even though I never hear it here in the PNW. - Im engraving into a 2x3” piece of resingrave which is a synthetic equivalent to an end grain wood engraving block. Should anyone be interested, if all goes well, hopefully I’ll have some prints available soon. 🌾 #woodengraving #engraving #resingrave #printmaking https://ift.tt/2RjWQXq

Monday Motivation Owl

This Monday’s motivated owl is a Resingraving by printmaker, illustrator, book designer, and fine-press publisher Barry Moser from Psalm 104 in Moser’s massive, two-volume tour de force The Holy Bible published in 1999 by his Pennyroyal Press in North Hatfield, Massachusetts, in an edition of 400 copies.The print illustrates this passage from the Psalm:

You made the moon to mark the seasons,    and the sun knows when to go down.  You bring darkness, it becomes night,    and all the beasts of the forest prowl.

-- Psalm 104:19-20

We presented two other bird prints from Moser’s Psalms last Feathursday.

"Fabulous" is done. (Just need to refinish the frame.) Today I have to go to the Farmers' Market and carve at the Carousel. Here are a couple pics from last night's So Small. Everything sold. It was a huge success, and a lovely evening for bike riding and hanging with friends. I hope everyone who wanted a No Face in Oregon, got one. . . . . . #oregonartist #sosmall #art #acrylicpainting #resingrave #woodengraving #printmaking #ukulele #norestfortheweary #ApocalypseCarousel

חג פורים שמח -- Chag Purim Sameach -- Happy Purim!

Purim begins with the Fast of Esther at sundown this evening. Shown here are the original wood engravings (actually Resingravings) by Barry Moser, and the beginning and ending texts, for the Book of Esther from Moser’s massive, 1999 Pennyroyal Caxton Press limited-edition printing of The Holy Bible. This 2-volume set was designed and fully illustrated by Barry Moser, with Galliard, Mantinia, & Mantinia Greek types and new decorative and typographic elements designed by MacArthur Award-wining type designer Matthew Carter. The publication was printed letterpress on custom-made Zerkall paper by Austin,Texas, master printer  Bradley Hutchinson in an edition of 400 copies. The edition was hand bound in full vellum at the combined Easthampton, Mass., workshops of Claudia Cohen and Sarah Creighton.
