Friend us on facebook and you can find the event page and get yourself included in a facebook deal for the event when you check-in.

February Exhibit

Reception: February 4th 7-10pm
Exhibit: Entire month of February

We're excited to welcome Nebraska artist Nicole Gustafsson to the studio + gallery! We think her illustration and water color work is a must see collection that is both unique and profound.



Nicole Gustafsson was born and raised in Norfolk, Nebraska. Much of her youth was spent playing in the park across the street from her family home. These outdoor adventures helped form Gustafsson's love of nature and fueled her imagination. It is this spirit of discovery and adventure that she conveys in her artwork.

In 2007, Gustafsson received her BA in Studio Art from Hastings College, Hastings, Nebraska. She currently teaches graphic design at Hastings College, and works at Graham Gallery and Framing in Hastings, NE. Her two cats and many, many plants accompany her on her journey.

Iron Brush

This is one of two designs that Tyson at Iron Brush drew up for us to screen on some tees. We decided to do a bone white colored plasticharge print on some various colored cotton tees.

Screen Ink : Freestyle 50


ScreenInkBoard.JPG, originally uploaded by O.E.S..

We hosted a fabulous art exhibit that was organized by Ryan Holt and Jeremie Memming, local artists/designers here in Lincoln. I was hoping to have time to run a series of three boards but ended up only having time to pump out this one and gave the other two to some other artists in town. 38 local artists in total designed 50 skateboards for this exhibit. Ours was basically a play off some mail we received the day I decided to get this board completed. This is a 4-color process print of a photo i took of the capital, then a screen print over the stamp and raw wood of the board. The whole thing was then coated with some random wood seal we found in the shop, couldn't really read what it was . . . a totally spontaneous and fun Saturday project.

Nelnet Marketing

Here's a follow up photo to a previous post. This is the second design of three for Nelnet Marketing Group. I didn't actually get to see any of these around town, but oh well. Hopefully they found some interns, which was the intended purpose. We custom mixed three pantone colors with water based ink to run these posters @ 19" x 25".

Here's a sample of some posters we ran for Iron Brush Tattoo. A two color print on a speckletone paper from French papers. This is a 19" x 25" water based silkscreen print. I know, I know, this one has bleeds in the image... we forgot to take shots of the good ones!

Another Arbor Day Project


ArborDayFoundation2.JPG, originally uploaded by O.E.S..

We actually ran these before the coffee signs but, whatever. These are the front display pieces for the Arbor Day Foundations line of recycled greeting cards. As with the coffee signs, we used a brown water based ink on natural wood. This creates a really nice burnt wood effect, without any burning...

Community Crops

Here we have some box tops to cover the wonderful locally grown produce of the Community Crops of Lincoln. We used a custom mixed green water based ink on their provided natural cardboard color box tops.

Arbor Day Foundation

We printed up some raw wood pieces for the Arbor Day Foundation recently. These will be part of some signage for what seems to be their line of specialty coffee in conjunction with the Rain Forest Rescue Project. Very cool.

Silkscreen Posters

Here is the first of a three part series of posters we will be screen printing for Nelnet. Three spot colors on some nice heavy French paper. We hope that this is just the start to a fruitful relationship between Screen Ink. and poster printing.

Silkscreen Poster Printing is HERE


posterpress.JPG, originally uploaded by O.E.S..

We're diving into the world of poster printing. Using a nice water based series of inks we can mix pantone colors to a fairly close proximity and screen print either full color (CMYK) or spot color posters.

More photos to come...

Irish Fest


Photo 168.jpg, originally uploaded by O.E.S..

I ran these for a group of guys heading to Kansas City. Presumably Irish and ready for some serious beer consumption. It's pretty simply but effective, a 2 color print on black t's. We allowed the black of the tshirt work inside of the interior to save a bit of cash on this small run of t's.

Lowdown on the Lake

Seriously put me to the test on this one. 6 color print on black t's. This is the back design, the front had only the orange print in the pocket area.

This is a brown water based print for a boys group. There is a passage on the side of the boat, good luck reading it in this crummy laptop photo!
