Get to know all the necessary materials and their tricks, from types of rubber, types of paper, inks, and the different surfaces that can be stamped. Explore everything you need to customize your books, travel notebooks, create prints for your clothes, self-publish your own prints and fanzines, or turn your home into the greatest work of art.
Begin by learning a little more about Pablo Salvaje’s career and way of working, as well as his graphic references. Then discover all the materials and basic tools necessary for carving stamps.
Using illustrations, natural elements, and photographs as inspiration, choose a design to create your first personalized stamp.
