Genine Zlatkis is a prolific illustrator with a great style and her studio is amazing. She posted these pictures of all her supplies, organized so neatly, I couldn’t resist sharing them with you.
I recognize a cup full of Sakura Pigma Microns, Pink Pearl and assorted erasers, and the recognizable ferrule of a Dixon Tocnderoga pencil.
Genine also created some rubber stamps recently that would be perfect for decorating letters and envelopes and sold here.

i stumbled upon those stamps over at paper pastries recently and i think i’m in love. i want them all.
How do stamp makers apply the stamp image to the top of the stamp block? It looks like waterslide transfers with a coat of clear poly sealant over that to minimize the transition between slide and wood…but I can’t be sure.
Often it’s just a laser print on clear adhesive but other companies may laser etch into the wood blocks or use a water slide technique.
How about that cup of Lamy Safari/Al-Stars?
I thought that was what was in that cup. Thanks for confirming it for me.
