Stukenborg Letterpress Dice Prints

It’s the start of what what will be a very rainy Monday (and Tuesday, and Wednesday…) here, but it’s all good because it’s a holiday week. Happy Passover to those of you who celebrate, and an early Happy Easter to those who will be celebrating the upcoming Good Friday and Easter Sunday!

I thought I’d start off the week with these wonderfully original letterpress dice prints from Stukenborg, which kind of blow my mind. Each pattern is built by laying dice, one by one, on the bed of the letterpress and rolling ink directly onto the face of the dice for each impression:

And here are some of the final prints. It’s amazing how many different patterns can be made with the dice:

    These are so great – as a fellow dice artist (www.bdub-ny.com/dice) and letterpress enthusiast.. I wonder if he’d want to collaborate on a portrait.
