5 out of 5 starsThe gorgeous linen day apron displayed in Good Measure's shop is even more perfect upon receipt, and it gets even better when actually worn! I did not expect such a fabulous fit or such a graceful line. The easy movement of the fabric makes it so streamlined for moving about when undertaking various tasks. If I owned a specialty shop, I would order loads of these aprons for the shop caretakers; we would all look nlovely as we stack all those shelves and wrap the goodies. Alas, no shop for me, but I look quite lovely doing the home-making tasks wearing Good Measure's creation. nMarrianne

Handmade Linocut Prints
Hello and welcome! My name is Samantha and I am a linocut printmaker. I adore simplicity, nature and everyday life.
I work out of my small home studio, located on the outskirts of a busy city in California. My creative world is most often inspired by nature and botanical finds, minimalist design, line drawing and illustration. I work with my hands: sketching, carving linocut blocks and printing with my trusted baren.
I first noticed the art of block printing when I saw the gorgeous wallpaper designs of Galbraith and Paul in a magazine. I picked up a beginner set of carving tools and lino and made notecards for my family. Carving lino blocks in the evenings after my kids were tucked into bed was a great way to relax; the work of carving things away is almost meditative. Soon I began to carve and print more than I could keep, and began to sell my work.
Beginning in 2008, I sold my prints on sewn goods under the name Inklore to small boutiques and customers around the world. My work was featured on blogs such as Bliss, Design*Sponge and Sfgirlbybay - and sold in shops such as Terrain and PerchSF. I have also taught a block printing class at The Makerie. I've been developing my aesthetic as a printmaker, and am excited to be returning with a new focus on original linocut art prints.
