4th Annual NY International Miniature Prints Exhibition

Last night was the opening reception for the Mini Prints show at Manhattan Graphics Center, where I take printmaking classes. The place was packed to the gills, and I was pleased to see that my two prints had already been claimed by someone! (The red dots indicate the pieces are sold.)

This was the first time I’ve entered artwork into a juried show in years, and it was exciting to received the email that my pieces were accepted, so seeing those little red dots was the cherry on top.

Here are some little “tests” that comprised my first prints in my return to screen printing

As ever, I skip around from medium to medium, and this semester at the studio is no exception; I’ve been taking a screen printing class, I’ve not used this method since I was in school, so it’s been great getting back into it. I’m undecided yet whether I’ll return to etching or stick with this in the new year, but I have time.

These are some prints in progress: two out of three of the colors have been printed, and I’ll finish with the third color Tuesday in class. This piece, like the two mini etchings up top, relates to my trip to Spain and Portugal back in May. This was from a sketch I did sitting on our balcony in Lisbon, looking out at the river.
