meet baby bear and pezya, of bbandppinc.
A pair of quirky little characters embark on their adventures in a series of stories by bbandppinc. The minds behind these fun handmade storybooks are Robbie Guertin and Dasha Shishkin of Brooklyn, New York.
Made in small editions, their handmade books combine a well-crafted quality with affordability, and the stories of Baby Bear, Pezya, and their other critter-friends are a way for the two of them to make whatever artwork they want.
I absolutely love the earthen quality of the handprinted linocut images that fill the pages of each hand-stitched book.
Besides handmade books, bbandppinc. also churns out cards, prints, and t-shirts featuring some of their favorite line drawings. I absolutely adore the matching t-shirts of Baby Bear, Pezya and the trail of little cupcakes!
