FIGHT OR FLIGHT
california society of printmakers
I'm happy to be participating in my very first CSP group exhibition "Extraction: Response to the Changing World Environment" debuting at the Sanchez Art Center in Pacifica, California.
This piece I named "Fight or Flight" is a recent print completed during the pandemic. It illustrates the struggle we face in our daily lives. Confronted with a swarm, the cricket symbolizes perseverance through tough situations. The print was inspired by the work of Japanese masters and the Sōsaku-Hanga creative art movement. This carved woodcut arrangement uses a total of four woodblocks, including the woodgrain pressed from a wooden plank and was accented with sumi brush ink.
Opening Reception:
Sanchez Art Center / Pacifica, CA

EAT THE DAMN CAKE
{ an homage to Wayne Thiebaud}
I am thrilled to have one of my gel monotypes featured in this group exhibition. This print was inspired by one of my favorite artists and printmakers - The great Wayne Thiebaud.
Wayne turned 100 golden centennial years last Fall, and I (baked) this piece of cake to celebrate an artist who has inspired my creative journey for as long as I can remember...
