Workshop Update
I’m enjoying the Spring weather. Yes- even the rain ( see my latest reading list, below). I’m preparing for the Art Students League Summer Art Market, June 11-12, where I’ll be in Booth#98 with fellow monotype artist Taiko Chandler. In the past, people have stopped by the booth to meet me and ask about Summer workshops…

The summer has been a cool one with breezes or showers at night for comfortable sleeping. With the Summer Art Market show over and the workshops begun, I’m catching up on postponed tasks, such as paying off credit cards. I’m working a temp job in a bookstore for that, and it makes it hard to…

Summer’s Here; Time is Right for Printmaking
I’m spending most of my time working on my Summer Art Market show with monotype artist Taiko Chandler. We’re in Booth 99. Looks like the weather’s finally clearing up; I’ve made quite a bit of new work and Taiko will bring a whole different look with her abstract, very organic work. And filling only half a booth…

Guilty Treasures
A slow starting day with gathering clouds- perfect! I did finish up some MoPrint biz earlier this week, and went to studio twice, but I didn’t produce a lot of finished work, mostly thinking and prepping for a final push at the SAM. Here’s another weekend book post: Next to the bed, I have an…

Everything’s a Work in Progress
What I have worked on this winter is a small series of work intended to develop organically from sketchbook ideas on up through experiments in different sized paper and eventually to a large, significant, and fully realized work. Especially as I transition to new methods of working such as stencilling, etc, I’ve tended to have…

“Whaam”, “Blam”, Thank You, Ma’am
I’m done teaching workshops till January. I’m mostly done showing work this year, too, though I am available for appointments, just click “Contact”. I am also sending some images to G44 Gallery, where they will be available for online purchase soon. I’ll link to the site when it’s up. My own online sales gallery is…

Ice Cold Ice
I took the week off from printing when a frigid cold front came through. Not the workshops, though, my timing is great as I’m due at Athmar Branch for what will be a record cold night. Not expecting a big crowd for that, but the show must go on! I’ve posted a last free Denver…

Read Flag!
It’s Banned Books Week. Though it’s been a busy Summer, I’ve gotten quite a bit of reading in. Evenings and mornings have mostly been spent catching up on my reading on the back porch, thankfully relatively cool this summer. Here is what I’ve been reading. Rather than compile a comprehensive entry, which I’ve identified as a reason…

Free Workshops This Fall
I’m doing a series of free workshops at the Denver Public Library again this Fall. They’re short, drop-in style intros to the basics of monotypes. If you are considering my upcoming full, 8-week workshop at the Art Students League, which starts September 16, then why not come down to Byers Branch, 675 Santa Fe Dr,…
