About

My name is Scott Holford. I am a graphic artist and event organizer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA currently living and working in Nice, France.

I started Golden Key Prints with the help of my wife Lauren as a side project back in 2016. It offered me a way to be creative outside of my job as a middle school art teacher in the Philadelphia suburbs. I began by creating small-batch copperplate etchings and sold work out of a tent at various art shows around the area.

After teaching for a decade, I left to pursue GKP full-time in 2022. I expanded my offerings to include screenprinting for local small businesses and collaborated on limited-edition releases with a variety of individuals, as well as designing and printing my own products. Here’s an interview I did with another local business that offers more insight into my personal work.

Yearning for the human connection that I once had with teaching, in 2024 I started The Adult Art Club - a social meet-up for artists and hobbyists focused on community-building through creativity.

In April 2025, my wife and I moved to Nice, France, continuing versions of our existing businesses abroad! Although, I’m no longer providing screenprinting, I still love designing merch for other small businesses, and I’ve expanded my offerings to include a variety of other types of work, including website design and social media content creation.
