I like creative challenges. When Adobe Stock asked me to create a magazine cover using Adobe Stock assets, I took the opportunity to start a project that I had in mind for a long time: The Mr Cup Gazette, a thematic journal for inspiration. I have created a video to show you the whole creative process, from developing the idea, to the final version to the first edition. My episode is dedicated to letterpress printing. #AdobePartner

 

WATCH THE VIDEO ON ADOBE YOUTUBE CHANNEL

The idea is to explain you what is letterpress printing and how I use it for my project !
 

YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE GAZETTE IN PDF

The assets I use for the project are from Adobe stock and this series of printing in letterpress is so good.

As I already said, updating this blog for 15 years seems unreal, even for me. After all these years, I changed it and adapted it. With a lot of time dedicated to Instagram, I have to found a new way to create with this blog. So what about giving it back its first purpose: a personal diary. So I will try to post every week (or less if nothing happens) to update you on what I do and what inspires me. 
 

Time to sell a part of my vintage items!

At the end of September, it will be the end of 6 years in my actual studio! I need to move to a new place, and so on it is a good time to organize and clean. I have put a lot of found items in the shop. I collect these boxes and ephemera over the past years and do not worry, I still have a lot to inspire me!

Inspiration : Paris traffic in the 1910's

 
I spend less and less time on facebook, only for precise groups or inspiration account. And This one is one I love. This guy post amazing thematic posts about old Paris, with photos, maps but also a lot of details. Check it here. 
These photos of Paris traffic in early 1900 are fascinating! Imagine the streets with horsecars and the brand new cars, buses and tramway and the holes to start building the metro! Who said it was better before...
