PRINTS BY POST
Submission InfoWelcome to the new Remote Residency program at Island Farm Press: Prints By Post!
Prior to March 2020, artists had been invited to create a limited edition print in our studio through our residency program, The Aviary. Although we're sad not to be able to drink tea with you and make a mess together, we are excited to continue collaborating with artists in this modified form.
Overall dimensions of the postcard will be 4 x 6”, so please keep your design to 3.5 x 5.5” at 300 dpi
Paper = 4 x 6”Artwork = 3.5 x 5.5”

We currently have five papers from French Paper Company to choose from.
The three on the right work well with most colors, while the purple and grey are best for opaque inks.
The purple looks really nice with silver ink, and the grey is great with white.
Please specify paper preference when submitting design, and feel free to ask any questions about which might be best for your artwork.
