Fall Residency
Plans for autumn are falling into place.
I am the recipient of a Jerome Fellowship for the New York Mills Arts Retreat. I will spend the month finishing the final drawing in my ill series, as well as several smaller projects.
Many thanks to New York Mills and the Jerome Foundation, for funding such a great program.
Summer Commission
Made for a commission, I have just finished a seven color screenprint. Printed on white stonehenge paper, sized 15″ by 22″. Its a small edition of 6, with two color variations. A souvenir of summer vacations long passed.
Two have sold, four are still available.
Summer Update
Its mid-summer and a lot of projects are in the works, but there is not much to show yet.
The studio has been in a state of transition and everything has been moved around and changed. The big green wall is gone and I must say I miss it. But there now is more storage and workspace, so it is all for the best.
Here is a quick glimpse at a commission I am currently working on in its early stages. The edition is being printed in two sunny color variations, and it’s off to a great start. Check back for images for the completed edition in the next few weeks.
I hope you are enjoying summer as much as I am.
Ashes, Ashes
Wrapping up a new work.
This my first screenprint on wood and the results are quite lovely.
It has a great size and shape (16″ x 16″ x 2″) and will have a slick, glossy finish. Sadly, I only get to keep it for another week or so while it gets a few coats of varnish.
Then its off to its new home!
