WE ARE SWAMP COTTAGE STUDIOS!
Swamp Cottage Studios is a husband-and-wife creative duo working from our micro printshop in our home in Monkton, VT. Hannah’s prints often depict food and agriculture with a touch of whimsy, while Tyler’s work is inspired by elements of history and high strangeness. Each of our pieces are hand-cut and pressed on archival quality paper.
Hannah works as a whole-animal butcher, and Tyler works as a timber framer. Each of us has a sculptural background, and shares a love of tactile 3-D work and bold, graphic illustration. Hand-cut linoleum block printing production combines both of those interests, while remaining accessible in a small space. When we aren't working or printing, we enjoy cooking, being outside, and looking after our two gremlin cats, Gator and Willow.
One of our main focuses is accessibility in art, both for artist and customer, which is why we chose to pursue printmaking. Linocut block printing allows for the creation of high-quality images which can be continually reproduced, while remaining very affordable.
