Description
Elevate your space with "Creativity" - a frameable print that features a meticulously handprinted blue vintage typewriter, its keys giving way to an explosion of dynamic metal type.
A fusion of nostalgia and innovation, this print is a must-have for the modern hipster or any person seeking creative inspiration!
Need to know
The vintage typewriter, printed from a photopolymer plate stands as an emblem of analogue creative origins, while the exploding metal type, pieced together letter by letter (GOSH THIS TOOK FOREVER!) from a box of orphaned letters, adds a contemporary edge.
Printed on premium archival paper, this comes to you signed and dated as part of a new Open Edition of this bestselling piece. It even featured in an exhibition at the Royal Birmingham Society Of Artists in 2020.
It comes to you mounted on oversized grey board and in a protective glassine bag. It will look great in a chic loft, a cosy corner or an eclectic cafe and is a real conversation starter. We have sold this piece to so many bestselling and novice writers around the world and we love seeing the pictures they post of it in situ!
This is A5 in size (148 x 210 mm) and printed on thick WILD card stock using our favourite Lyme Bay Press oil-based letterpress inks.
Rapidly and inexpensively framed by popping it in an easily available standard A5 frames.

My name is Simon Trewin, Founder and Chief Inkoholic. My prints, books and cards always start out with me scratching my head and thinking, “I wonder what would happen if I...." and then I am away!
Experimentation is at the heart of my practice - I love playing around with inks, vintage papers, wooden illustration blocks and historic metal type to a clanking soundtrack of my wonderful family of hand+foot operated presses. I also love classic typefaces, bold colours and an ever-present sense of how good prints can make a real instant impact. As you will see - I can rarely resist sprinkling a sense of humour in to the mix too!
Running through everything I do is my passion to help keep heritage crafts alive and to enjoy that sense of a historical connection to the printers, presses and ephemera that have come before me. I also truly believe in the benefits of slowing down, switching off and zoning into the deep focus that this process of discovery inspires in me.
In a world where everything is too fast, I enjoy nothing more than closing my studio door and diving into the rich and ever-rewarding world of letterpress printmaking.
