A Brief Look: Little Friends of Printmaking

 

A look at the portfolio of Los Angeles based illustration duo Little Friends of Printmaking is an incredible look at a downpour of ideas — they push contrasting shape and color into their own brand of wild design.

Little Friends of Printmaking are the duo of JW & Melissa Buchanan, a couple who developed their art in the Midwest before relocating to Los Angeles in 2013. Together, they create art of such joy and heartfelt silliness, each poster is a brilliant slab of absurdist storytelling.

They are artist and printmaker of the Little Friends of Printmaking brand, husband and wife in sync with taste, thought, and the internal chug of the creative engine.
