Life Is Short

LIFE (is short)
DEATH (is long)
ACT (accordingly)

This hand made letterpress style print is from an inspirational quote attributed to Voltaire. It reads "Life is short, death is long, act accordingly".

This is a hand printed Mid Century Modern inspirational letterpress poster meditation print, from a quote by Voltaire, “Life Is Short, Death Is Long, Act Accordingly”. (See second photo for detail). Though this image may be duplicated, no two will ever be exactly alike, as each piece is individually printed by hand, making each print slightly different, adding character to the piece, and making each an original, OOAK unique print.

Using a unique pigment transfer printing technique, a traditional Japanese barren, and numerous tools laying around my desk, I painstakingly and lovingly transfer my image inch by inch (somewhat like letterpress, but without the press) from a paper "plate" onto either 80 lb. recycled tan cardstock (pictured in this listing) or Rives white BFK rag paper (see my other listings). Because each piece is printed by hand, each print is slightly different, adding character to the piece, and making each an original, OOAK unique print. Though the image may be duplicated, no two will ever be exactly alike. The print you receive may differ slightly in appearance due to the hand made process of each print. Specific numbers not available. PLEASE NOTE: This is not an inkjet print, nor is it a reproduction. It is a hand pulled, limited edition original print.
