colophon

First published 2020. Revised continuously. Portland, Oregon.

Welcome to the colophon!

In traditional printing, this is where any publishing information would go: fonts used, ink colors used, date of publication, where it was published.

I love design and there’s something special about a colophon that feels like a peek behind the curtains. I also love when digital media harkens back to old print making or publishing traditions. That’s why I wanted to include a colophon on my site. Enjoy!
