Love my new print! It's beautiful -- also came with a ginkgo calendar, which was a really nice surprise. Would purchase again :)

The quality of this piece is amazing! But first let’s talk about the design - no one is coming over to your house and saying oh yeah I saw that magnolia print down the street because guess what Jerry - you didn’t!!! It’s bold and modern. I kept a warm wood frame on it because that really suits the decor here. Just waiting to be mounted! Don’t think twice about this one! It’s beautiful and I feel like it could almost fit into absolutely every room here. This was also hand delivered by the maker and came with a handwritten card. I don’t need encouragement to buy local, but if you do please take this as it!

I am terrible at keeping plants alive, so now I have a print up that will never die! I love the aesthetic of all the prints in this shop. Ordering and shipping went swimmingly. We have a relatively new home and are lacking some art, but I've got some now and will definitely be back for more of this great Canadian art.

Video summary: Using traditional relief printmaking techniques, each high-impact design is individually drawn, carved, inked, hand-pulled, and subtly unique.

Limited edition linocut prints, handmade with love in Canada. 🍁

In 2013 I sought a creative outlet from my corporate job. I registered for an evening printmaking course and discovered the therapeutic release of carving into a fresh lino block.

I started a side hustle, called Set Forth Studio, which moved with me from Montreal to Vancouver to Ottawa through life, relationship and career changes. In Fall 2019, I rebranded the biz to Few of a Kind Prints.

I use traditional relief printmaking techniques to individually draw, carve, ink, and hand-pull each design (i.e. no mass-produced digital prints here).

Tastemakers on the hunt for original artwork for their design-forward homes may purchase my prints at a fraction of the cost of fine art pieces. On offer are open-edition prints for the budding collector, as well as limited edition and rare prints for seasoned collectors.

My artwork is inspired by my travels, pop culture, and nature. All subjects are interpreted in black and white for versatile interior styling.

Frequently asked questions

Sizing details

Unless otherwise indicated, all art prints measure 11x14” and fit a standard-size photo frame. The prints also display beautifully in a 16x20” frame, matted to 11x14” (e.g. KNOPPÄNG by IKEA).

Because each block is hand-carved (it’s analogue, baby), they cannot be reproduced in a different size.

Custom and personalised orders

At this time, I’m not taking on commissioned artwork.
