our latest research project is hot off the press 🔥🔥.
A new printmaking technique produces images that can change colors when heated up ♨️. MIT researchers helped develop "Thermochromorph" to take advantage of full-color process printing. It uses thermochromic inks to make images transition into each other:

Cheese/charcuterie boards are so fun to make and it’s always nice to have another creative outlet. My goal is to make boards that look like decadent Dutch still life paintings to remind people of the beauty of simple food🍊🍇.
