Prints of the Year

 My colleague and I dropped off our submissions for the 2016 Prints of the Year Show, that will be held at the Robert Lincoln Levy Gallery in Portsmouth, February 3rd, through the  27th.




We've been taking printmaking classes at the NHIA, for a while, and these are the block prints we are submitting this year. My regular followers know that I really love working on multilayered reductive block prints. These two are my most recent landscape pieces.

I couldn't resist added a new photo of Wiley and "friend."

Illustration Friday "spin"


It has gotten quite wintery here in the last several weeks. There is a layer of snow on the ground and the temperatures have been in the teens many mornings. The hardest part is getting home from work, and then trying to motivate myself to go back out again in the dark and cold to exercise at the Y! I generally do it because I know it's good for me, but I'm already looking forward to spring!

Illustration Friday "Moon"


This is a piece that I had intended to complete for last week's prompt,"soar" but didn't finish in time. With the addition of a few stars and a moon, it's ready for this week's theme!
