Collagraphs

I created some collagraphs at Atelier 6000, our wonderful printmaking center in Bend, OR. The top one was done with carbarundum and the other with gel medium. A cardboard plate or matrix is prepared with the textures and then I printed with soy ink on Rives BFK.

Dreaming On

Sometimes, when I first go in to my studio  I will tape a paper to the wall and just paint whatever comes to mind.  It is a great warm up and I love doing it. This painting, Dream On was the result one day. Today I am exploring black and white. I'll post the results later.

My Birthday Week

My birthday is Saturday.  They roll around so fast.  I'm looking forward to spending the day with my husband and checking out 10 Below at the Oxford Hotel. Have been painting some small abstract landscapes. I love doing these from memory of our vacation this summer to Utah, Idaho and Wyoming.
