Yes, it's finally happening

After many years of talking about getting out of Midland, I have found the perfect solution: an 80 year old one-room schoolhouse in a small village once known as Tyrone, just south of Barrie, Ontario.

The plan (and we all know what happens to plans....) is to turn the Tyrone Schoolhouse into my print studio (and sort-of residence). Create a fully operating print studio and education space to continue my own art practice and offer an operating press to other recent grads of print/fine art programs. Time will tell what direction it takes and just what it will look like.

This site will allow you to follow along with the anguish and triumphs of the renovation and establishment of Octopus Studio Press.
