About Copper & Print

Bridging Tradition and Modernity Copper & Print, run by Mary-Kate Reis in North Attleboro, MA, specializes in greeting cards and art prints. Mary-Kate's artistic journey began with copper plate intaglio in 2013, shaping her creative spirit and forming the foundation of her career. After receiving a BFA in Studio Art from Emmanuel College, she faced challenges in finding her place in the post-academic art world. While remaining dedicated to a printmaking art practice, she became intrigued by modern methods of illustrating. When March 2020 disrupted traditional artmaking resources, she pivoted to a medium that combined all her skills and could adapt to any situation: digital illustration. The word "copper" holds symbolic significance, representing the inception of Mary-Kate's creative journey. The flexibility coexisting with the rigidity of copper plates mirrors the merging of printmaking skills with digital illustration pursuits. The word "print" can be an adjective, noun, or verb, reflecting the dynamic and ever-changing visual narrative in Mary-Kate's work. As a shapeshifter in the art world, Copper & Print embraces fluidity between traditional and contemporary styles. Mary-Kate moves seamlessly between being an artist and a businesswoman, embodying freedom in expression. The brand represents her artistic values, leading to market presence in Boston, a wholesale line in 15+ stores nationwide, and a creative space for her art to flourish.Read their story
