“Great makers create even greater tools! When I discovered Jeremy Child, founder of Artifex Forge, I was amazed by how his tools save time for busy designers and creators, while keeping the high standard of innovation and originality. The Artifex Forge has spent many happy hours poring over antique maps, real glass, old Roman mosaic patterns and created extraordinary brushes, seamless patterns, stamps, and lines for your authentic designs. To spice up your designs, I created the Grand Maker’s Toolkit featuring four products created by Jeremy Child for the Heritage Type community only.”
