Elaine Chu Graphic Design

In this digital age, I still like the tactile feel of fine paper and a quality pen to go with it. I lean towards nicely bound journals, letter press paper and the like. And with places like Kozo and Maido in SF and Twig and Fig or Miki’s in Berkeley, there is a lot to choose from and admire.
I first came across Elaine at the Live Oak Park Fair in 2007. And last Sunday I wandered past her booth at the Solano Stroll. And she remembered me from my previous, but short buying experience. She’s friendly, helpful and very engaged in her work.
She designs and hand makes a variety of greeting cards, books, photo albums, boxes, and other fine papers. She also makes Jewelry and works as a graphic designer. The quality of her wares is high and its all great to look at, feel, and of course write on, mount pictures, etc. The prices are also very reasonable.
Elaine will be at the upcoming Out and About Rockridge street fair on 9÷28÷2008 and at the Crucible in Oakland on December 13^th and 14^th. I’ll probably be back during those times to admire and buy.
