In 2009, Pogue began a collaboration with retired printing plate engineer Skip Klepacki with the goal of promoting fine art printmaking using healthier, petroleum-free, sustainable, bio-based, and biodegradable materials. They worked together to develop a system of products and methods that both met their goals for sustainability and produced the highest quality prints possible, all without increasing per-use costs.
