My piece at the Brattleboro Art Museum was reviewed by Stephen Orloske on the blog Vermont Art Zine. I am pretty excited about what he observed and wrote.

"Everything is comfy, everything looks miserable."

Last weekend I took a workshop in Moku Hanga with Annie Bissett at Zea Mays Printmaking studio. The last picture above shows the prints I pulled on Sunday. Annie is a great teacher, she shared a lot of information in a short period of time but it didn't feel overwhelming at all. Also do please check out her web page and see her prints!
