February’s featured artist is the amazing Iron Curtain Press.<\/p>\n

Rosanna and Joel Kvernmo are the Iron Curtain Press. Together they design, print, photograph, ship orders, and do all those other tasks necessary to keep a bustling custom and ready-made letterpress print shop up and running. Their designs are refreshing, perfectly minimalist, and charmingly subtle.<\/p>\n

We asked Rosanna some questions…<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

*\u00a0How many folks are involved in the whole design process?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The cards start out by being drawn by me (Rosanna). At that point, we can send the cards to Postable. We also letterpress print all our designs – and that involves a few more people, from the printing to the folding\/inspecting, to packaging the cards and packing orders. We have a small team to get everything shipped out!<\/p>\n

\"Iron<\/p>\n

*Where are your headquarters?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We are located in Los Angeles, California<\/p>\n

* What\u2019s your favorite card that you\u2019ve designed (on Postable)?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I think the Yay pennant is still one of my favorites. But really how can one choose a favorite from amongst all their children, ha!<\/p>\n

* Where do you draw your inspiration for your design?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

My style is simple and minimal – I draw inspiration from the people I know. Almost all of our cards were originally created with a specific person in mind, I find that if one friend will think a card is funny or find it meaningful, there’s a good chance there are others out there who will feel the same way about the card!<\/p>\n

* If you had to describe your cards in one word, what would it be?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Charming<\/p>\n

\"Iron<\/p>\n

*If you could spend a day with any person (dead or alive) who would it be?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Pete Carroll!<\/p>\n

*If you had to paint your house inside and out with the same color, what would it be? Why?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

White! That way the rest of our decorations and plants would stand out against the white background.<\/p>\n

*What would you choose as your last meal?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A meatball sandwich<\/p>\n
