The Still Waters: A Printmaking Experience

I had a great printmaking adventure!

I went to Tukwila Washington--20 minutes outside of Seattle-- to Sidereal Fine Art Press, where I spent four days making a series of prints.
While there I worked with the printmaker Sheila Coppola--who is a skillful printmaker and a delight to work with.
Here are some photographs of the results.


From my sketchbook: the color and value study.

I had a wonderful time at Sidereal Fine Art Press and I learned a lot about sugarlift, monotype, and working in softground.
