The raccoon Smudge is one trash panda that loves getting dirty and doesn’t shy away from mischief in the print shop. Smudge makes a great first impression, even when caught in the ink jar!

This original artwork was designed, carved, and printed by Lyell Castonguay and Carand Burnet. Ink is applied to a carved wooden block and hand-pressed onto Japanese Chiri. Chiri has randomly distributed bark pieces sprinkled throughout, so every sheet of paper is unique. The artwork is signed in pencil by the artist.
